Hi,

I have a drill down table in sideviewutils. It is working without any problem. I need to modified the value of the clicked field if the value is let's say "X".

Example:
clicked_value="$row.fields.ProgramID$"
if clicked_value = "x" then click_value = "b" else clicked_value = $row.fields.ProgramID$;

Is this possible is sideviewutils?

Thanks,
Lp

Sure. You'll want to get to know the ValueSetter modules a little better. In particular the main one "ValueSetter", which has a feature where it can set values conditionally.

Take a read through the ValueSetter docs page within Sideview Utils, under "Module Documentation > The Value Setter Modules > the ValueSetter Module".

<module name="ValueSetter">
    <param name="name">modifiedValue</param>
    <param name="if.$click.value$=x">b</param>
    <param name="default">$row.fields.ProgramID$</param>

    <!-- downstream modules can access either $modifiedValue$ or $row.fields.ProgramID$ etc..  -->
  </module>

and if you want to rewrite one of the existing keys it's as simple as using the same name.

<module name="ValueSetter">
    <param name="name">row.fields.ProgramID</param>
    <param name="if.$click.value$=x">b</param>
    <param name="default">$row.fields.ProgramID$</param>


  </module>
