Creating Event Decorations
Event decorations allow creation of global styling that applies to event types. These decorations impact how events appear across several Workstation widgets, including:
Event decorations are created in the Workstation Designer tab.
To create event decorations:
-
From the top of the Workstation homepage, click the Designer tab.
-
In the left side drawer of the Designer tab, click the Events icon. A list of event types appear.
Note:
If no events appear, active filters applied to the Event Decorations table may be filtering them.
-
To the right of an event, click the pencil icon (✎) to open a modal popup containing three values to be altered as part of the event's decoration. Refer to the following table for a description of each field:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Primary Title | Pick one or multiple fields from the event type to use as the event's primary title. Multiple fields will be concatenated. |
| Color | Visualize representations of the event type with a specific color. |
| Icon/Image | Visualize representations of the event type with a specific icon or image. Icons will appear in Link Analysis, in the Map widget, and on events attached to collections |
Note
Changes to any field affect the following:
- Events attached to collections
- Link Analysis nodes
- Popups from map widget markers
Primary Title also affects Attached Events on collection PDF exports.
Event types that do not utilize event decorations default to a white/gray color, a generic icon, and the Core ID or event type name as the primary title.
