TVC 2023.2.0 Release Information

1. Core

1.1. In-App Designer

In-App Designer is a concept that brings the idea of creating, editing, and sharing configurations using the built-in admin user interface. These configurations can be used to define Helium dashboards, widgets, tables, charts, etc. Built-in Admin UI is provided to create, modify and share these configurations. In-App Designer can be used from Helium standalone or Helium widget in 3DDashboard. Once the config-admin is created and shared the configuration with the end-user, then the end-user receives the configuration to accept it. Once accepted, he can select and apply the configuration to his page, dashboard, or widget from UI. For detailed information, please refer In-App Designer section in helium documentation.

In this release, we have enhanced this feature further as stated below.

1.1.1. In-App created Helium-Page in Classic tabs

In this release, the In-App Designer feature is enabled to use Helium-Page under TVC Classic tabs. Config-admin can create a helium-page configuration which can be configured under the TVC Classic tabs.

By default, the helium-page config is disabled to create. This feature can be enabled by adding tvc.enduser.page.enableToCreate = true setting in TVC.properies file. By default, this property is set to false

Config-admin can design a helium-page by configuring dashboards in it and add the helium-page to the classic or Enovia commands to view from the TVC classic tabs.

For example, to view the drawing print object’s related parts and the related part’s change order, config-admin can configure two dashboards to display the related parts and the part’s related change order, and then config-admin can add the created dashboards to the helium-page object in tabs as shown in the image.

Figure 1. Configure helium-page with the created dashboards

Once the helium-page is created, config-admin can configure an enovia command or TVC command by pointing to the helium-page object in the HREF as shown below. And then the command can be added to the drawing print object’s tree menu.

The URL parameters used in the href are case-sensitive.

print command DrawingPrintInAppView

command DrawingPrintInAppView
  description config admin configured dashboard view for drawing print type

  href '${ROOT_DIR}/goto/foo.jsp?embed=true&inAppPage=CONFIG:0000000000002698/Active'
  setting Target Location value content

Once the command DrawingPrintInAppView is configured in menu type_DrawingPrint, the helium-page can be seen as shown in the below image
