Widget Badges at Runtime (Release 9.2.9.3)
Starting with Tools Release 9.2.9.3, you can add Widgets to the Badges. The output of the Widget is displayed on the badge similar to Watchlists.
If you have added a Numeric Badge type Widget to the Badge, it displays a symbol that denotes the threshold type (Ascending or Descending).The symbol is not displayed if the threshold value is not defined for the Widget.
The first time you open the Composed Page, the system will update the Widget Badges with the most current information. When you hover over the tiles with the Badges, the Refresh icon will be displayed. You can use the Refresh icon to recompute information of the Widget Badges associated with that tile on demand.
Based on the threshold type, Widget (Numeric Badge type) Badge displays the following status when you hover over them:
- No threshold set: This status is displayed when warning and critical threshold are not set for a Widget.
- Within threshold limit: This status is displayed when the Widget value is within the threshold limit.
- Value is above the warning threshold count: This status is displayed when threshold type is Ascending and the Widget value is above warning threshold.
- Value is above the critical threshold count: This status is displayed when threshold type is Ascending and the Widget value is above critical threshold.
- Value is below the warning threshold count: This status is displayed when threshold type is Descending and the Widget value is below warning threshold.
-
Value is below the critical threshold count: This status is displayed when threshold type is Descending and the Widget value is below critical threshold.
The Widget badges display in the following colors:
- If an associated Widget has not breached the threshold, it appears as a blue badge.
- If an associated Widget has breached the warning threshold, it appears as an orange badge.
-
If an associated Widget has breached its critical threshold, it appears as a red badge.
When the Badge is associated with a Text Badge type Widget, it displays the resulting text from the Widget on the Badge in blue color.
You can hover over a Widget Badge to view the name and the status of the associated Widget and see how long it has been since the Widget Badges last update.
Clicking the Widget Badge takes you to the application defined when the Widgets are created.
