David:
As always, thank you for the work by you and your team on Exhibit. It
continues to get better and I like the change in version 2. I have a few
items that I need some help on. I've tried to format some currency
properties. I've indicated that the valueType for the property is
'currency'. I've tried this - ex:formats="currency {symbol :'$M';
symbol-placement : last}" - in the <div> for the lens and it seems to have
no effect on the property. I found I could change the number of decimal
places, but can't seem to get the symbol or symbol placement to work.
The second item is a desire to control the formatting of a lens. I'm using
Thumbnails (but Tiles could work) and would like to control the background
color - like a row styler. I have, in fact, tried to make a row styler work
and I also tried to use the new coder capability but couldn't seem to make
either affect the background. Would one of these work? Or is there
something in the new "More powerful lens template constructs, now including
if-else, select-case, -style-content, and -style-subcontent " that would
help me (perhaps in those tantalizing "-style-content" and
"-style-subcontent" items). Could you shed some light on these
capabilities?
Again, thanks. I wish I could share some of the things I am working on
but I'm not really in a position to do so at the moment. -- Also, we had
an exchange in the past and you gave me some "timelineView2" code that I
enhanced to allow any of the properties to come from a linked element.
Would you like my changes?
Charles Cowan
