I have a service returns string "Alarm"/ "Healthy"/ "Error".

I want to display these string and change color based on state.

 

I made a state definition and binded service result to value display - data.

 

Now, I open "ValueFormat" but don't know how to assign state definition. How to do it?

My TWX version is 8.5.0

 

Thanks.

Hello @Toshihiko,

 

Just in case if you can't find a proper solution, then there's an ugly, but rather efficient and simple workaround -- you can create three value displays styled differently and manipulate their visibility via three validators or expressions.

Hi,

 

Seems a defect, I cannot see State-base formatting for Value Display in 8.5.3.

I still need to test in 8.5.4

Hi,

 

I can confirm this is a defect and it was already reported. For the moment, we do not have a fix version.
