Typical usage scenario

Display a string, composed on the fly by a microflow. Choose whether you want to place the widget in a dataview or not (CustomString (No Context)) Use this widget instead of creating an attribute solely for display purposes. Now an additional attribute to store the string has become superfluous!

Installation

Import the widget to your project. Add either the Custom String or the Custom String (No Context) to a page. Configure the properties to determine how the widget will behave in your application.

Properties

• Render as HTML - Determines if HTML elements in the generated string are escaped.
• Source microflow - A microflow generating the string to display.
