Design/runtime detection EWO implementation.

Post by Gulftown »

If I place a BarChart3D.ewo widget on a panel when designing in GEDI there are some dummy bars already displayed randomly in the widget so I can check how could it look in runtime. But if I run this panel with no configuration done the widget is empty.

How can I implement the detection if my widget is being placed on the panel in GEDI or the panel is riunning in the Vision? I'd like to display some dummy data in GEDI too.

I understand it is possible to make a parameter passed to my widget during panel initialisation so widget can detect initialisation is done but there is some way to make that internally in the EWO and increasing data passed to the EWO doesn't seem to be a good thing.

You have to add the "inGedi" property to your own ewo widget, which will be set to true when in gedi.
