View information about a selected content control

This panel is for viewing and editing the properties of a specific content control. To enable editing, select one content control. You can change these values:

  This only applies to images that were inserted after being searched in the IDM Images panel.

• Value type

  The type of value (date, time, number, hyperlink) the content control is meant to hold.

• Label XPath

  This only applies to label content controls.

• Custome Locale

  This changes the date and number formatting. This only applies if you click Use this locale when formatting value.

• Input format

  Notifies Output Management what to expect from the data XML file in terms of format.

• Output format

  What the data should look like when the document is generated.

• Visibility

  Determines when content found in this content control should be visible. These are the possible values:

  • Don't hide

    This control is always visible.

  • Hide control if value XPath result is empty

    If the data XML does not have any values for this XPath, this control is hidden.

  • Hide control if XPath condition result is true

    Creates a condition by which the XPath is made hidden or visible through value comparisons. For example, to hide a line item if the cost is less than $1, you would add that condition to the box below this option.
