TileProperties

TileProperties - dictionary with keys of type string (property name) and values of type object (value properties). First, it is recommended to set the property names by using the define string constants for the reason that when you specify a non-existent name (or assuming the errors in it) the control will work normally except that the value of the property will not be rated. Secondly, should pay attention to the type of the transmitted value, which should be the heir of the type of the corresponding property or be them.

an Example of using properties TileProperties

For a class of tiles ObjectTile sets the property AttributeRenderers.

//expander control class MasterExpander 
Dictionary<string, AttributeRenderer> renderers = 
                new Dictionary<string, AttributeRenderer>();
renderers.Add("Nickname", delegate (object val)
                        {
                            return string.Format("<b>{0}</b>", val);
                        });
expander.TileProperties.Add(ObjectTile.AttributeRenderersPropertyName, renderers);

Web.config

To enable the web service ObjectTileViewService.asmx you must add the entry in Web.config:

IIS6

<configuration>
...
<system.web>
    ...
    <httpHandlers>
        ...
        <add verb="*" path="ObjectTileViewService.asmx" validate="false" 
          type="ICSSoft.STORMNET.Web.AjaxControls.HandlerFactories.ObjectTileViewHandlerFactory" />
        ...  
    </httpHandlers>
    ...
  </system.web>
  ...
</configuration>

For IIS7

<configuration>
...
<system.webServer>
    ...
    <handlers>
        ...
        <add name="ObjectTileViewHandler" path="ObjectTileViewService.asmx" 
          verb="*" type="ICSSoft.STORMNET.Web.AjaxControls.HandlerFactories.ObjectTileViewHandlerFactory" 
          resourceType="Unspecified" preCondition="integratedMode" />
        ...  
    </handlers>
    ...
  </system.webServer>
  ...
</configuration>

Kind of control

CSS

To change the control, you can override the CSS attributes for the classes:

• The outer div control: div.otv-tile-view
• The display area of the tiles: div.otv-tiles-area
• The selection page: div.otv-page-select-area
• Select button page: a.otv-page-button
• Button is selected page: a.otv-selected-page-button

Example of a separate use ObjectTileView

To add a static control in aspx markup, you first need to register the namespace prefix (or tag) control, for example:

...
<%@ Register TagPrefix="ac" Namespace="ICSSoft.STORMNET.Web.AjaxControls" Assembly="ICSSoft.STORMNET.Web.AjaxControls" %>
...

The control ObjectTileView must be present on the page ScriptManager’a:

...
<asp:ScriptManager runat="server"/>
...

To desired location add the control:

...
<ac:ObjectTileView runat="server" ID="myTileView"/>
...

To initialize the control you need when the page is loaded (in method Page_Load) to do the following:

// Set the view according to which database will be loaded and displayed objects 
myTileView.View = Information.GetView("DataTypeL", typeof(DataType));
// Set the class of the object that will be displayed in the control 
myTileView.Type = typeof(DataType);

To work control the necessary library connected jQuery. The other properties are optional and described above. If you want to customize appears in the control, see the property TileType.
