conditional metapicture / shape on a diagram

[veldew]

Hello,

I made a conditional metapicture to show a different shape on a diagram when an object has a specific keyword attached.

This works fine, except when the user has choosen a "manual" shape.

(at shapes and details, the "manual" checkbox is enabled)

is there a way to detect the shape used or override it ?

kind regards,

Wim VdV

Hello Veldew,

I am actually having the same need as you! 🙂  Would you be so kind to indicate how do you achieve to change the shape of an obect based on the presence of a given Keyword ?

I am working with objects of type "Content", and I'd like to change the background color of the Content icon when a certain keyword is attached to the Content.

Thanks

Ismael

Hello Vim

This is by design

There are 2 modes:

• Computed: the system selects the shape automatically according to rules configured on the MetaPicture
• Manual: the end user selects manually the shapes he wants. The rules  rules configured on the MetaPicture are not considered
