Rotate Tool

The Rotate tool is a BI Beans thin bean, for use in an HTML-client application. It allows users to change the layout of the data that appears in a thin Dataview.

The ThinBeanUI implementation of the Rotate tool is the oracle.dss.thin.beans.tools.RotateTool class. The UINode for the Rotate tool is oracle.dss.thin.beans.tools.RotateToolBean. To render the Rotate tool, your servlet application must associate the RotateTool object with the RotateToolBean object.

The JSP tag for this tool is the RotateTool tag. In the UIX Language, the definition element is the rotateToolDef element, and the UINode is the rotateTool element.

The RotateTool should be stored in the HTTP session.

Using the Rotate tool in the View Toolbar

When you use the View Toolbar, you do not need to instantiate a RotateTool or the RotateToolBean. The View Toolbar instantiates and renders the Rotate tool and handles its events.

Using the Rotate tool by itself

To use the Rotate tool outside of the View Toolbar, instantiate the RotateTool and call its setView method to specify the thin presentation bean that is displayed with the tool.
