Converters
Use converters to transform the source value and then assign the value to the parent node.
Local converter
A local converter is specific to a singular complex dynamic link and cannot be reused in other complex dynamic links. See Complex dynamic link editor and Create a complex dynamic link.
TIP:
If you intend to use a converter and its properties in a single complex dynamic link, create a local converter.
Converter type
You can use instances of a converter type in multiple complex dynamic links. This way, if you must update the converter logic, you do it once by editing the converter type. See Create a converter type.
TIP:
If you intend to use a converter and its properties in several complex dynamic links, create a converter type and then use the converter type instances in multiple complex dynamic links.
Converter example
An example converter in the complex dynamic link editor may contain:
Item | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
Parent variable | The variable value, which value is the converter output. | |
Dynamic link direction | The direction between the converter output and the converter logic. The direction changes as you select the icon:
| |
Insert | Inserts another converter block. | |
Converter name | The name of the converter object. | |
Converter properties | You can set the properties values to:
| |
Source dynamic link | Either a dynamic link to a variable or tag value or another converter. |
