The body of the plotSet tag is executed in the scope of plotter. The body can contain nested "style" tags, one plotSetBar tag, and one "region" tag.
One must specify number of plots to be plotted:"nplots" or "plots" attribute.
Required attribute is "plots" that is is a list of IManagedObjects to be plotted. Each Each object from the list is plotted in a separate plotter region.
There are other optional plotSet attributes, with default values, e.g.:
height = "600" 400 or 200*nX (pixels)
width = " 600 " or 300*nY (pixels)
format = "png"
indexVar statusVar = "index"
regionVar = "region"
url = "" (The page to link the browser to)
id = "" (The id for the browsing when multiple browsers are present in a pagestatus" (name of the variable that keeps PlotSetStatus object with the current status of the loop: index, plots, ....)
allowDownload = "true"
createImageMap = "false"
maxPlots = "9" (maximum number of plots per page)
layout = "" (plot layout, must be in the form of nX x nY)
Default layout:
n Plots nX x nY
n<2 1x1
n=2 1x2
3<=n<5 2x2
5<=n<7 2x3
7<=n<10 3x3
PlotSetStatus object has the following properties:
nplots, maxplots, plotsinpage, index, offset, offsetvariable, plots
plotSet can also contain the plotSetBar tag with the following attributes:
url - required (The page to link the navigation bar to)
var = "href" (name of the variable that keeps PlotSetBarStatus object with the current status of the bar hrefs: first, previous, last, ....)
PlotSetBarStatus object has the following properties that are filled with hrefs:
defaultBar, first, previous, next, last, pages
Examples:
1. Very simple example - just plot using defaults
Code Block |
---|
<!-- plot set of IManagedObjects --> <plotSet plots="${dataArray}" /> |
2. Set same style for all regions
Code Block |
---|
<!-- plot a set of IManagedObjects with a single regionplotter-level style --> <plotSet plots="${dataArray}"> <style> ....... </style> </plotSet> |
...
Code Block |
---|
<!-- plot a set of IManagedObjects with a different region-level styles --> <plotSet plotsstatusVar="${dataArray}" indexVar="index">status"> <region> <c:choose> <c:when test="${status.index%2 == 0}"> <style> ....... </style> </c:when> <c:otherwise> <style> ....... </style> </c:otherwise> </c:choose> <plot var="${dataAray[status.index]}"/> </region> </plotSet> |
4. Plot data with two overlays, each uses different style
Code Block |
---|
<!-- plot a set of IManagedObjects with overlays and individual data styles --> <plotSet plotsstatusVar="${dataArray}" indexVar="indexstatus"> <style> ....... </style> <region> <plot var="${dataArray1[status.index]}"> <style> ....... </style> </plot> <plot var="${dataArray2[status.index]}"> <style> ....... </style> </plot></plot>region> </plotSet> |
5. Make regions clickable with unique href-s and styles
Code Block |
---|
<!-- plot a set of IManagedObjects with overlays. Make regions clickable and with unique styles. *** FIXME: don't know how to call setters on an Object!Seems that we need to set "href" by-hand, since tag *** itself knows only IManagedObjects, not paths to them --> <plotSet plots="${dataArray}" createImageMap="true" indexVarstatusVar="index" regionVar="region"status"> <region set region.title = "Region ${status.index}" set region.href = .... > <plot var="${dataArray1[status.index]}"> <style> ....... </style> </plot> <plot var="${dataArray2[status.index]}"> <style> ....... </style> </plot> </region> </plotSet> |
