IBM Planning Analytics Tips & Tricks

IBM Planning Analytics Tips & Tricks: Merge an Icon and a Button, Part 2

 

Tips & Tricks

July 7, 2020

By Lee Lazarow

In an earlier post, I showed how to merge a button onto an image in IBM Planning Analytics to create an easy-to-navigate user experience. However, as a developer I may forget which images are just images and which images contain buttons.

To get around this, I sometimes add small reminders to my images to let me know there are two things merged into a single image. In the previous post, I recommended changing the text to a blank value. This result gives you the house image below.

However, if you change the text into something small (such as a period) then you can easily make it fit into part of the image.

To the end user, the house now looks like it has a door. But as a developer, I now know that there are two components … an image and a button.

Hiding “dots” in your image is an easy way for you to remember the components in your PAW pages.

IBM Planning Analytics, which TM1 is the engine for, is full of new features and functionality. Not sure where to start? Our team here at Revelwood can help.
