PromptsCreateReportTransform

Formal Parameter Type Default Required Description
appliesTo STRING   false

This parameter informs the javascript the id of the bone the actions of this component applies to. For example, action of a Toolbar will be applied to the "grid" bone (in the Report page), or the the rwb_viewer (in the document's page).

Possible values for this property are bone ids, its usage depends on the page.
blockCount INTEGER 5 false Specifies the number of prompts are displayed per block in report page.
Only applies when there are multiple prompts defined in given report and when display mode is set to display all prompts in one page. It indicates the number of prompts per block being displayed in page.
This flag is used as int value.

contextMenus STRING   false

This formal parameter is used by the Transform to identify the context-menus definition. The value of this parameter can specify either:

  1. The name of a <menu> defined in the pageConfig
  2. The path of an xml file with the context-menu definition

In both cases the xml defines the context-menus using <shortcut-list-set> tags. A <shortcut-list-set> represents a collection of <shortcut-list> tags. Each <shortcut-list> represents a single context-menu. Each <shortcut> represents a single option. Users can add/remove/modify <shortcut> to control the options displayed to the end user.
