Using Tags to Create Configuration Triggers
Tags can be used to create configuration triggers for the Live Mode.
When a properly tagged surface is clicked during Live Mode, the next configuration value is displayed. If the configuration property is displayed in the Configuration Browser as a check-box, successive clicks will enable and disable the option. If the configuration property contains a set of values, such as a series of colors, successive clicks will cycle through the colors one by one.
To do so, you will need to create specific tags for the surfaces that will act as triggers. The tag must correspond to the partition of the configuration that you want to cycle through. To add rules associated with the partition type, use the tag partition. To add rules associated with the partition.value type, use the tag partition.
Examples:
Type | Configuration symbol | Tag to apply | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
partition | armrest | armrest | show/hides an armrest |
partition.value | material.wood | material | shows the different values (wood, marble...) one after the other |
partition.value | material.marble | material | shows the different values (wood, marble...) one after the other |
