  • Background color : This setting allows you to choose the type of colorization for the background of the graph. Several styles and colors are available.
  • Printing: You can choose here not to print the component during an XLS/PDF export
  • Frame Style: Apply a rounded border to the component frame

  • Icon : Here define the width and height of the icon used as well as its source. The image can be stored locally on the Need4Viz server (in the N4VCustomElements webapp folder : N4VCustomElements\res\images) or it can be a URL, in this case, define it as URL(“http://your_url/your_image”). Format of image can be SVG, PNG, JPG…

• Input_Control
  • Input control options : This setting allows you to choose the input controls that must be reset or not. If “All except specified” is set and no list is fed, all report input controls will be reset when clicking this button. You can also choose the type of action to perform on the input control(s): Reset or send “All values” (this allows the input control to use a default value on reset ). You can also choose not to reset any input controls (but only Webi variable(s).
  • Variables : This setting allows you to reset your Webi variables when clicking this button (use “;” separator). A reset default value can also be defined (default value is #N4V_ALL).
  • Drill levels & Selections storage : This parameter makes it possible to delete from the cache of the user's browser, all the values of the last drill levels & selections operated on the current report and/or on all Webi reports (clean of the entire user's cache). All drillable components of the current report will therefore be reset to their main level.
