Rendering options
Rendering options are the various parameters that you can apply to your notification's rendered objects. Rendered objects include:
-
Tables
-
Traffic lighting
-
Charts
-
Dials
-
Scales
-
Buttons
Each of these rendered object types requires specific parameters.
You can specify default rendering options in the Rendering_Config.xml
document. However, you can specify alternative rendering options
when you create or edit your notification. The rendering options that
you specify in the Notification wizard override the Rendering_Config.xml
rendering options.
Do not modify Rendering_Config.xml
unless you can write well-formed XML. Any errors in this file prevent
Smart Notification's rendering function from working at all.
Always backup Rendering_Config.xml
before you
modify it.
Rendering options provide you with flexibility when building a notification because you apply individual rendering options directly to the object rather than creating a template and attaching that template to the notification.
