Hi Everybody

I'm I am working on the design of a mashup which will aim to simulate a process used within a factory, and I recently had a crazy Idea that consist of designing the same work environment to make it easier for operators.

The lists below represents, items and elements that are used by operators, so The idea consist of attributing the selected items and elements to a drawer in order to save them, every drawer is represented by a button

when we click on a button elements that have been selected appears, so if the drawer is full already the button or the widget should appear in red. if the drawer is empty the button should appear in green color.

Can anyone tell me how this could be implemented in thingworx ? do we have the possibility of having a dynamic design that varies depending on the information entered ?

I would say this is very doable.

1. Store the data somewhere, potentially a datatable or external source

2. You can use List type widgets or grids or collection widget to handle the behavior which will be triggered based on selected row(s)

3. Use state based formatting, and potentially mashup containers

I would say that if you go through Intro to Thingworx you should have a lot of these skills

Thanks for your answer @PaiChung Paichung, I took a look at the introduction thingworx and it's really nice but I don't have access to all demos unfortunately

Actually I realize that the the image I uploaded does not appear in my first post, so I would like to share with you the image so you can telle me what is the best solution for this.

Here is my drawer :

I actually made a manual solution by creating two superimposed buttons which have different indexes (11 and 12) which are reversed by clicking on case box.
