Solved: Re: How can I hide/Unhide a dashboard panel based ...

pavanae · ‎01-10-2020

I am able to add the checkbox as shown below:-

As show above I just want the Panel_1 displayed only when I choose the checkbox Show under Overview.

Where as XML code is as follows

--------
-------
 <input type="checkbox" token="overview" searchWhenChanged="true">
             <label>Overview</label>
             <choice value="true">Show</choice>
             <change>
               <condition label="Show">
                 <set token="overview">true</set>
               </condition>
             </change>
             <default>true</default>
           </input>

  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel depends="$overview$">
      <title>Panel_1</title>
      <table>
        <search>
------
-----

The above xml is not working as the Panel_1 is displaying anyway irrespective of the option I choose in the checkbox.

Any help would be great.

Please try this simple example dashboard (just paste source) as a starting point:

<form>
  <label>pavanae</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false"></fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <title>panel title</title>
      <input type="checkbox" token="repeatHelp" searchWhenChanged="true">
        <label></label>
        <choice value="TRUE">Display help for this section</choice>
      </input>
    </panel>
  </row>
  <row>
    <panel depends="$repeatHelp$">
      <html>
    <p>
      <b>Help:</b> This section is used to identify...
    </p>
    </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

The depends can be applied to a row or panel.

Kind of like the @richgalloway solution, I do this:

  <fieldset submitButton="false" autoRun="false">
    <input type="checkbox" token="showDetails" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label></label>
      <choice value="TRUE">Display Details</choice>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel depends="$showDetails$">
...

Slightly different look and feel. I use this a lot for hiding/showing a help panel to assist using the dashboard.

Could not paste XML here, so please see my other answer

This works in one of my dashboards.

...
<input type="checkbox" token="foo">
  <label>Overview</label>
  <choice value="true">Show</choice>
  <delimiter> </delimiter>
</input>
</fieldset>
...
<row>
<panel depends="$foo$">
  <title>Panel 1</title>
  <table>
...

Thanks for the response @richgalloway. For some reason It didn't worked on mine.

Try adding searchWhenChanged="true" right after token="foo"

How can I hide/Unhide a dashboard panel based on the checkbox choosen?
