Conditional panel wizard

The Conditional Panel Wizard allows to filter the controls inside it based on the filters set in the wizard. You can use the wizard to hide certain details in the report, depending on the filters added and their value in relation to the selected test result.

To edit a section by using the Conditional Panel Wizard, do the following:

  1. On the Insert menu, select Conditional Panel.
  2. In the Report Designer, select the data you want to hide in the report. The selected area appears as outlined rectangle.
  3. Insert tables or charts or other controls in the Conditional Panel.
  4. Select the area twice in rapid succession. Conditional Panel Wizard opens and you can start adding filters.

The fields and controls available in this dialog box are described in the following table:

Description

Evaluate conditions together

 

Select the check box to evaluate the entire filter uniformly against the Data Source.

For example, if you would like the conditional panel to show HTTP client activity with an objective type CPS, you can add the following condition:

[activityList-ixActivity:protocolAndType]='HTTP Client' AND [activityList-ixActivity:objectiveType]='connectionRate'

And then select the check box Evaluate conditions together.

When the check box is not selected, the Conditional Panel will evaluate each condition in the filter separately and then apply the operator between the conditions to the results of each condition evaluation.

Specify Filter criteria

Select the filter operator from the list. Options include the following:

  • And: Set the And filter operator.
  • Or: Set the Or filter operator.
  • Not And: Set the Not And filter operator.
  • Not Or: Set the Not Or filter operator.
  • Add Condition: Add a new condition.
  • Add Group: Add a new set of filter conditions within the main condition.

 

Add a new filter condition to the group.

 

Open the list of objects and select the first operand of the filter.

 

Open the list of filter operators and select one of them to set the comparison type between the two operands.

 

Enter the value you want to compare the first operand to.

 

Delete this filter condition.

 

Finish

Select to close the Conditional Panel Wizard.
