Customizing link representations

Some properties are mapped, which means that they are computed on the basis of the state and alarm information set in the object (column Set).

The properties can be divided into three categories:

CSS properties applying to the link base
Property Name	Type	Set	Default Value	Description
background	Color	Yes	Transparent ( null )	Specifies the background color; if this value is null, it is interpreted as a transparent color
foreground	Color	Yes	28% gray in the IltObject class style	Specifies the foreground color of the base.
borderColor	Color	Yes	10% gray	Specifies the color of the border lines of the linear base.
borderColor2	Color	Yes	60% gray	Specifies the color of the background of the border lines. It is used only if the line style is not solid.
borderWidth	Float	Yes	1 pixel	Determines the width of each border. If the borderWidth property is zero (0), no border line will be drawn.
borderLineStyle	float[]	Yes	null (Solid)	Stores the line style of the border lines.
reliefBorders	Boolean	Yes	true	Discriminates between two identical border lines ( false value) and two differently colored borders to produce a relief effect.
lineStyle	float[]	Yes	null (Solid)	Defines the style of the linear base.
lineWidth	Float	Yes	5f	Defines the width of the center line of the base in the case of a linear base.
forcedWidth	Float	No	0	If the value of this property is not zero, the width of the center line is augmented or diminished so that the total width equals the width stored in forcedWidth.

CSS properties applying to arrows on link base elements
Property Name	Type	Set	Default Value	Description
hasFromArrow hasToArrow	boolean	Yes	false	These two properties determine whether there is an arrow or not at the beginning and end of the link
fromArrowSize toArrowSize	float	No	8 pixels	Define the length of the arrow at the beginning and end of the link
fromArrowColor toArrowColor	Color	Yes	28% gray	Define the color of the center of the arrow, if the arrow has a border, or the whole arrow, if the arrow has no border
fromArrowReliefBorders toArrowReliefBorders	boolean	Yes	true	Gives a relief effect to the arrow border
fromArrowBorderColor toArrowBorderColor	Color	Yes	10% gray	Defines the color of the arrow border
fromArrowBorderColor2 toArrowBorderColor2	Color	Yes	60% gray	If FromArrowReliefBorders (or ToArrowReliefBorders ) is true, this property defines the dark color of the relief effect

CSS properties applying to the inner line of link base elements
Property Name	Type	Set	Default Value	Description
innerLineWidth	float[]	Yes	null (Solid)	Denotes the width of the center line of the inner part of the link base, if any.
innerBorderWidth	float	Yes	0	Defines the width of the border line of the inner part of the link base, if any.
innerLineStyle	float[]	Yes	Solid	Defines the style of the inner line of the link base, if any
innerForeground	Color	Yes	28% gray	Defines the foreground color of the inner line of the link base, if any
innerBackground	Color	Yes	transparent ( null )	Defines the background color of the inner line of the link base, if any
innerReliefBorders	boolean	Yes	true	Discriminates between two identical border lines ( false value) and two differently colored borders to produce a relief effect for the inner line, if any
innerBorderLineStyle	float[]	Yes	Solid	Stores the line style of the border lines of the inner line, if any
innerBorderColor	Color	Yes	10% gray	Specifies the color of the border lines of the inner line, if any
innerBorderColor2	Color	Yes	60% gray	Specifies the color of the background of the border lines of the inner line, if any. It is used only if the line style is not solid.

Note

The inner line set of properties apply to links that use the IltBiSONET object state. You can also customize other links with an inner line.
