Configuring Tag Cloud display options

The Display Options tab of the Tag Cloud edit view provides additional display configuration options for the Tag Cloud.

The configuration includes the number of terms to display, the default format, and the text size for the terms.


Display Options tab on the Tag Cloud edit view

To configure the display:

  1. In the Maximum number of keywords field, type the maximum number of terms to display on the Tag Cloud.
  2. In the Maximum component height for list view field, type the maximum height in pixels of the Tag Cloud component when displayed in list view.

    If the list does not fit within the specified height, then end users can scroll through the list.

  3. Under Tag Cloud format:
    1. Click a radio button to select the default display format (Cloud or List) for the tag cloud.
    2. By default, end users can toggle between cloud and list view. To prevent them from changing the format, deselect the Allow end user to toggle format check box.
  4. Under Text size, use the sliders to set the minimum and maximum size in pixels of the Tag Cloud terms.

    By default, the text size ranges from 10 pixels to 32 pixels.

    You can set the text size down to a minimum of 8 pixels, and up to a maximum of 48 pixels.

    You can also put the sliders on top of each other to set a single text size for all of the terms. For example, for a list view that includes the number of values next to each term, you may just want to display all of the terms at a size of 11 pixels.
