Footer function

Mapping data to fields is available in the supporting footer below the canvas. If a field has the ability to bind data, the mapping option becomes visible in the footer bar.

General

In general the best way to approach data mapping is to refer to the dataclip as a table structure consisting of rows and columns.

To determine a single value from this structure a column (header) and row (occurence) is needed.

When multiple values from multiple rows are needed system will need to know which columns and rows are needed.

The software supports 1 type of mappings:

Single header mapping: This mapping requires a single header or column form a dataclip to be mapped to a property.

Examples:

  • Select a value from a list and set values to linked labels or textboxes. These labels and/or texboxes shows a specific value under a header based on filtered or chosen line from a dataclip.

In general the best way to approach data mapping is to refer to the data as a table structure consisting of rows and columns.

To determine a single value form this structure a column and row is needed.

When multiple values from multiple rows are needed system will need to know which columns and rows are needed.

A general note here, by default all rows in a data set are targetted.

Filtering to these rows are commonly applied by configuring these as links or filters.
