The visualization allows you to display a graphical image of your process state. A distinction is made between the visualization editor and the visualization sequence. (The Visualization Editor completes the entire definition of your process images. The visualization process dynamically represents the process image in operation.)
Each process image is made up of different elements (e.g. elements, pointer instruments, bitmaps, etc.) Modeled. For this purpose, the editor provides an extensive item library. Each element has specific properties that determine its appearance on the screen. Basically, such properties can be set statically and dynamically. Static setting means that the property is set during creation and does not change in the flow. Dynamic setting, on the other hand, depends on variables for certain element properties. In the flow, the member properties change depending on the value of the associated variables.
This gives you a moving process image that dynamically changes its appearance during the visualization process, depending on the state of your process. Your visualization project is thus a one-to-one illustration of your process. This means that two steps are required to create this one-to-one image of your process:
- Define all elements and their properties that determine appearance
- Dynamizing the elements, i.e. Definition of how individual elements should change their appearanc
e when certain process events take place, or the effect that user input should have to the outside world.
