Properties configuration

In order to configure this Widget once it is installed in your project, include it in any form and set it properties in the Forms designer, just as you would do with any other type of Bizagi control.

time_tracker_3

Consider the following properties.

PROPERTY	POSSIBLE VALUES	DEFAULT VALUE / SUGGESTED
Data Binding	A BigInt type attribute holding the number of seconds.	Any. This property is mandatory.
Default value	A default value can be set whether fixed or through an expression.	(None)
Show Widget	When true, the widget is visible in execution in the Work Portal, otherwise, it is not shown.	True
Reset time to the default value	When true, the time tracker starts at the default value. If the default value is not set, the time tracker starts at 0. When false, the time tracker starts at the value defined in the XPath.	True
Size	small, medium, large	medium
Show Buttons	It is possible to hide the buttons under this widget, preventing the users to pause, start or reset the time counted.	True. Must be switched depending on the user needs.
Auto Refresh time	Time interval in seconds defined to save the form automatically. The minimum value for the auto save is 10 seconds, hence, if this property has a value inferior to 10, it will not be taken into account and the auto save or the tracker will be performed every 10 seconds.	10

note_pin

The Show Widget property allows you to set if the widget should be displayed in a given form or not (e.g, by using a business rule). Nonetheless, this widget will start counting as soon as the form is loaded, so hiding it will not prevent the widget to start counting seconds.
