HTML Content Tab

A HTMLContentTab is used to set up content in tab format. Content tabs are used in the HTMLTemplateDefinition, to create dedicated tabs with different types of content (in the Center tab in the Diagram Workspace – Classic Layout).

Title: This will be shown as the title of the tab. If nothing is specified, the name of the HTMLContentTab object will be shown on the tab.

Empty content text: If there is no content to show inside the tab, then this text will be shown.

Content field: This defines the content of the tab. It is possible to either specify a list of attributes to show or to link to other objects that defines the content.

Content field

There are a few different ways to specify the content of the tab, right click in the box to get the available options:

HTML Content Blog

The HTMLContentBlog is used to retrieve information about objects related to the current object that is being viewed by the user. The main difference between HTMLContentBlog and other types of presentation is that HTMLContentBlog displays the information in a blog format.

Relation Type: The relation type defines what relation the content blog’s entries should have to the main object.

Options are LinkedBy, Links or Contains.

Attribute: The attribute defines what attribute used to get the relation to the main object.

E.g. for a list of ChangeRequests the relation type would be LinkedBy and the attribute would be Concerns. This will give a list of every linked by object that has the main object at the Concerns attribute.

Filter: Use the filter to provide a list of templates that you want to filter.

Function: Use this to provide a JavaScript function to execute.

Sort Order: Sort Order defines the attributes used to sort the list.

Descending: “true” or “false”. True for descending and false for ascending sort order.

 

Furthermore, the HTMLContentBlog takes a list of parameters for configuring the presentation.

DisableLink: “true” or “false”. This removes the hyperlink in the object title.
TemplateIcon: “true” or “false”. This displays a small template icon next to the object title.
HeaderAttribute: The attribute that should be displayed in the blog header.
HeaderCaption: The string that will be displayed in the caption header.

It is possible to include Audit information in the string by placing the audit keywords in curly brackets.
E.g. “Created {AuditCD} by {AuditCN}”

The complete list of audit keywords: Name, AuditCN, AuditCD, Audit´MN, AuditMD, AuditAR, AuditCG, AuditEN, AuditGC, AuditGS, AuditGD, AuditGA, Name, ObjID, Revision, Template

Guide

A “guide” refers to a set of instructions or procedures that are used to carry out a specific business process.

For example a restaurant using a recipe to prepare a dish (the business object) as part of their food preparation process (the business process). The recipe serves as a guide for the chefs to follow, ensuring that the dish is prepared consistently and to the desired quality every time it is ordered by a customer.

The “guide” connection links a business object to instructions or procedures that guide the execution of a business process, the “resource” connection links a business object to the specific resources needed to carry out that process.

Grouping : ArchiMate

The grouping element aggregates or composes concepts that belong together based on some common characteristic.

The grouping element is used to aggregate or compose an arbitrary group of concepts, which can be elements and/or relationships of the same or of different types. An aggregation or composition relationship is used to link the grouping element to the grouped concepts. Grouping elements can also have other relationships to and from them.

Group

In a business process diagram, the symbol “Group” is used to represent a grouping of related activities. It is a visual element that can be used to organize a process into smaller components or subprocesses, each with its own set of activities and decisions.

The Group symbol is typically used to improve the readability of a complex process diagram by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable pieces. It can also be used to visually differentiate different parts of the process or to indicate areas of responsibility.
