Basic Settings
| Field | Description | ||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Order | The order in which the attributes will appear in the view. For a grid view, this is the order of columns. | ||||||||||||||||
| Name | The display name of the attribute in the view. By default, this is the same as the name of the attribute in the underlying stream. Remember that if you are applying an Aggregate Function to the attribute, it is often useful to reflect that in the display name. For example: you are going to display the average monthly spend for each customer, by applying the aggregate function Average to the attribute | ||||||||||||||||
| Aggregate Function | You can specify an Aggregate Function on this attribute. As soon as you have specified a single aggregate attribute in your view, any other fields will be either aggregate attributes - if you also specify an aggregate function for them - or used as grouping attributes. | ||||||||||||||||
| Role | This option is available if the view is a chart, i.e. not a data grid. This is the role that the field has in generating the chart. You can set the role manually in the stream view attribute editor - but it is generally better to create charts using the visual editor. To do this:
You will see a visual chart editor. You can drag stream attributes onto this editor to create your chart. See Pivot Views and Charts, below. | ||||||||||||||||
| Double-click Action | todo?? | ||||||||||||||||
| Action | Specify a Stream Action for this Stream View Attribute. If this is a grid view then hovering the mouse over a cell a column created from this Stream View Attribute will cause a cog to appear. Clicking the cog select the row which contains the cell you have clicked, then will run this action. | ||||||||||||||||
| Always Show The Action Icon | This check box is only available if an Action is specified.
| ||||||||||||||||
| Hide the Input Field | This check box is only available if an Action is specified.
| ||||||||||||||||
| Hide the Action Icon | This check box is only available if an Action is specified.
| ||||||||||||||||
| Action Icon Style | The style applied to the action icon. If no style is set, PhixFlow uses a default cog icon. | ||||||||||||||||
| Stream Attribute Details | |||||||||||||||||
Name | The name of the underlying stream attribute. | ||||||||||||||||
| Type | The type of the underlying stream attribute. This cannot be edited here. It must be edited in the stream. See Stream. | ||||||||||||||||
| Number Format | Available when the underlying stream attribute is Type Float, Integer or Decimal. Specify the number format as it will be displayed on a grid or form; see Number Format. | ||||||||||||||||
| Date/Time Format | Available when the underlying stream attribute is Type Date or Datetime. Specify the format of a date/time as it will be displayed on a grid or form; see Date Time Format. | ||||||||||||||||

| Field | Description | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grid Default Width (pixels) | Set the default width of the column for this attribute. PhixFlow will create the grid with default column widths - you only need to specify a value in this field if the width you want is different from this default. | ||||||||
| Grid Minimum Default Width (pixels) | If you do not specify a Grid Default Width then PhixFlow will set the size of the column depending on the space available. If you set a Grid Minimum Default Width then PhixFlow will ensure that the column is at least this wide but will make it wider if there is available space. You can still make the column narrower than this by manually shrinking it after the grid has first been displayed. This field will be ignored if you set a specific Grid Default Width. | ||||||||
| Label | An optional label for the resulting column header. If left blank, this is the Name of the stream view attribute, formatted with a space before each capital letter. The label gives you more options for setting the column header - for example, control over the white space in the column heading - but you can also make this an expression. For example, to that the column contains transactions for the currently logged in user, you could use:
For user
To use an expression in this field, tick the box Label is Expression. Multi-level labels can be generated by configuring the Label to return a list of values. | ||||||||
| Label is Expression |
| ||||||||
| Changes Row Colour |
| ||||||||
| Always Hidden |
Use this option when you need to include a field in a view for a filter or Action, but displaying it would make the view cluttered. | ||||||||
| Hide if evaluates to True | Enter an expression that determines whether or not the attribute's field is displayed on the view. When the expression evaluates to true, then the field will be hidden. When Always Hidden is ticked, the result of this expression is ignored. | ||||||||
| Read Only |

| Alignment | Set the alignment of values in this column to:
