Hi @MT_10719574 ,

 

State Definition :

Selected Button Bar Value:

That Display Name string from State Defintion probably would work for the  widget like 'Button Bar' but doesn't work in general for state based definitions of Value Format.

 

If you need to convert the boolean value to Ready/Not Ready. You need to define the state definition both Value & Display Name should name.

In mashup you can handle with expression to convert the boolean value to required display value. Based on the expression out you can convert it render in value display.

Hi Arun C,

thanks for the reply.

i tried the given method (state definition file, value display widget with expression), still not able to get the READY/NOTREADY at dashboard. Any other setting is missed?
