The settings in this group allow you to create a configuration used to display a data model. Additionally, any saved graph configurations are stored here.
Each record in the Configuration table specifies options for displaying a visual representation of a data model.
Property | Description |
|---|---|
Name | The name used by this configuration. |
Graph type | Determines whether this graph will be generated from an TIBCO EBX® data model (Schema), or from another data source (Custom). |
Publication mode | When the graph type is set to Schema, use this property to indicate whether the data model is embedded, or in a module. The Data model drop-down will then populate with available data models of the corresponding type. |
Data model | Specifies the data model the add-on uses to render the graph. |
Data source | Displays when graph type is set to Custom and must specify the fully qualified path to the Java class that implements this graph. |
Display in dataset | Determines whether this configuration is available when users display custom graphs from a dataset's Actions menu. |
Templates | Specifies the template applied to this configuration. Templates determine a graph's color and display options. |
Enable table selection | Determines whether users will have the option of selecting which tables display when generating this graph. |
You can use the Templates table to customize the look and feel of a data model graph.
