The Electrical symbol component

Category	Property	Description
Common	Name	The name of the component, visible in other Designer locations (such as Page explorer).
	Object ID	Sets the Object ID of the component. By defining an object ID for the control, it can be passed as SignalPrefix when using parameter passing in navigation. The value of the Object ID can be used via a placeholder [OID] in other properties of this extension. The placeholder is supported in all signal properties, symbolic text, and states. Example: Setpoint [OID]
	Tooltip text	Optional tooltip text, that will be shown on mouseover at runtime.
Configuration	Dialog header title	Allows the user to set the text of the dialog header title
	Draggable	Sets the capability to drag the component on the page surface for both Modal and Popover behaviors. By default, the property is set to False
	Page behavior	Sets the runtime behavior of the component, allowing the user to choose between Modal (modal dialog) and Popover (contextual dialog)
Security	System authorization/ Permission	The system authorization required to display the component. If the logged in user does not have this system authorization, the component will not be visible or enabled (depending on the set Security access behavior). If the property is left empty, the component will be visible and enabled for all users. Further on, the user can also add multiple System authorizations / Permissions, separated by comma (,). This property is named "System authorization" for projects created on i4scada platform. This property is named "Permissions" for projects created on i4connected platform.
	Project authorization / Role	The project authorization required for displaying the component. If the logged in user does not have this project authorization, the component will not be visible or enabled (depending on the set Security access behavior). If the property is left empty, the component will be visible and enabled to all users. Further on, the user can also add multiple Project authorizations / Roles, separated by comma (,). This property is named "Project authorization" for projects created on i4scada platform. This property is named "Role" for projects created on i4connected platform.
	Security access behavior	Sets the behavior of the element to either disabled (grayed out) or hidden, when the logged in user doesn't meet the conditions imposed by the Project authorization / Roles and System authorization / Permissions properties. In case both Project authorization / Roles and System authorization / Permissions properties are set, the logged user needs to meet both conditions to be able to see and utilize the component, at run-time.
Layout	Layout mode	Sets the behavior of the component related to the page placement. The user can select the component layout from the options available in the drop-down list: Default, Dock top, Dock bottom, Dock left, Dock right, Stretched, Pin top left, Pin top center, Pin top right, Pin right middle, Pin bottom right, Pin bottom center, Pin bottom left, Pin left middle and Pin center.
Layout	Margin	Sets the margin of the component relative to the drawing board area. The supported values are the standard CSS values for the margin. The top, bottom, left and right values can either be typed in the main property field or by using the Margin editor. The Margin editor can be opened by clicking the Open button. The components margins can be updated by setting the margin value and selecting the desired unit: Ems (em) - The em is a scalable unit. One em is equal to the current font size; Pixels (px) - Pixels are fixed-size units. One pixel is equal to one dot on the computer screen (the smallest division of a screen’s resolution). Percent (%) - The percent unit is much like the “em” unit. When using the Percent unit the component remains fully scalable for mobile devices and accessibility.
Navigation	Is external	Allows the possibility to set the link target to internal or external If the property is set to False, a current project page can be set as a target. The user can select the project page for the Link property or manually type in the path pointing to it
	Page parameters	Allows the possibility to add additional parameters for the navigation, by clicking the Add new item button
	Page url	Sets the URL of the external or internal page, displayed at run-time within the Pipe vertical component. In case of an external URL, please make sure that the targeted website is either a locally hosted website or that the link is embeddable
Effects	Opacity	Sets the opacity of the component. The Opacity values should be numbers from 0 to 1 representing the opacity of the component. When the component has a value of 0 the element is completely invisible; a value of 1 is completely opaque (solid). By default, the Component's opacity is set to value 1. Using the up/down arrows the user can control the opacity degree. By clicking the Open button the view is extended to display the Opacity slider.
	Shadow color	Sets the color of the component's shadow. The user can either manually type in the HEX color code or use the color picker tool.
	Shadow offset X	Sets the offset of the shadow on the horizontal axis. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
	Shadow offset Y	Sets the offset of the shadow on the vertical axis. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
	Shadow size	Sets the width of the component shadow. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
Symbols	Symbol	Sets the symbol class name to be displayed by the component. The symbol element can be selected by clicking the Open panel to see the icon list button. The list of icons allows the user to toggle between actual icons and icon names. A simple filtering mechanism is also provided to support the user to easily pinpoint the desired icon.

	Dialog width	Sets the width of the dialog measured in pixels. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
	Padding	Sets the padding of the component (defines the space between the component contents and its border). The top, bottom, left and right values can either be typed in the main property field or by using the Padding editor. The Padding editor can be opened by clicking the Open button. The components padding can be updated by setting the value and the desired unit: Ems (em) - The em is a scalable unit. One em is equal to the current font size; Pixels (px) - Pixels are fixed-size units. One pixel is equal to one dot on the computer screen (the smallest division of a screen’s resolution). Percent (%) - The percent unit is much like the “em” unit. When using the Percent unit the component remains fully scalable for mobile devices and accessibility.
	Preferred popover position	Sets the positioning of the Pipe vertical popover panel. The position can be selected from the drop-down list options: (default), top, left, and right
Palette	Fill	Sets the color of the SVG file. The user can either manually type in the HEX color code or use the color picker tool. Applying this property will overwrite the default CSS class.

	Dialog header background	Sets the background of the dialog header, either by manually typing in the HEX color code or by using the color picker tool. As the component colors are injected by the default CSS, changing the color will overwrite the CSS
	Dialog header foreground	Sets the foreground of the dialog header, either by manually typing in the HEX color code or by using the color picker tool. As the component colors are injected by the default CSS, changing the color will overwrite the CSS
Style	Container border width	Sets the width of the container border in pixels. The border width value can be either manually typed in the designated field or increased/decreased by clicking the up and down arrows. The components border width can be updated by setting the value and the desired unit: Ems (em) - The em is a scalable unit. One em is equal to the current font size; Pixels (px) - Pixels are fixed-size units. One pixel is equal to one dot on the computer screen (the smallest division of a screen’s resolution). Percent (%) - The percent unit is much like the “em” unit. When using the Percent unit the component remains fully scalable for mobile devices and accessibility.
	Container border radius	Sets the curvature of the border corners expressed in pixels or percentages. The border-radius value can be either manually typed in the designated field or increased/decreased by clicking the up and down arrows This field supports the standard CSS notation
	Stroke width	Sets the stroke width of the graphical component.
Transform	Width	Sets the width of the component using the up and down arrows to increase and decrease, or by manually typing the desired pixels value. The component width can also be adjusted directly on the design surface by means of mouse manipulation.

	Horizontal flip	Flips the selected component horizontally.
	Vertical flip	Flips the selected component vertically.
States	Current States	A component can have multiple states, each carrying its own set of properties. The user can add states, by clicking the Add new state button. Furthermore, the following actions are available for each state: Move up Move down Clone state Remove state
	State Name	By setting the Name property, the respective state will inherit that name, making the States easier to read.
	State# Condition rule	The required rule for the extension to enter the state. The signal names must be always surrounded by percentage (%) characters, followed by logical operators and the Signal value. For example: %Setpoint 1% != 0 The Condition rule can be either manually typed in or generated, using the State editor. The State editor can be opened by clicking the Expand array list button. This way, the user can easily generate a Condition rule, as follows: Signal name - allows the user to select a Signal name for the Condition rule. Comparator - allows the user to select the logical operator to construct the Condition rule. Signal value - allows the user to add the Signal value, used to trigger the state condition.
	State# CSS class name	Sets the behavior of the element when the logged-in user doesn't belong to the project authorization indicated by the projectAuthorization property. In this case, the element can be either disabled or hidden.
	State# Symbolic text	The language-agnostic text (which is automatically translated) is displayed by the extension.
	State# Display state	Sets the component visibility and accessibility when the state evolution passed.

If the property is left empty, the component will be visible and enabled for all users. Further on, the user can also add multiple System authorizations / Permissions, separated by comma (,). This property is named "System authorization" for projects created on i4scada platform. This property is named "Permissions" for projects created on i4connected platform.
	Project authorization / Role	The project authorization required for displaying the component. If the logged in user does not have this project authorization, the component will not be visible or enabled (depending on the set Security access behavior). If the property is left empty, the component will be visible and enabled to all users. Further on, the user can also add multiple Project authorizations / Roles, separated by comma (,). This property is named "Project authorization" for projects created on i4scada platform. This property is named "Role" for projects created on i4connected platform.
	Security access behavior	Sets the behavior of the element to either disabled (grayed out) or hidden, when the logged in user doesn't meet the conditions imposed by the Project authorization / Roles and System authorization / Permissions properties. In case both Project authorization / Roles and System authorization / Permissions properties are set, the logged user needs to meet both conditions to be able to see and utilize the component, at run-time.
Layout	Layout mode	Sets the behavior of the component related to the page placement. The user can select the component layout from the options available in the drop-down list: Default, Dock top, Dock bottom, Dock left, Dock right, Stretched, Pin top left, Pin top center, Pin top right, Pin right middle, Pin bottom right, Pin bottom center, Pin bottom left, Pin left middle and Pin center.
