Tag references

A tag referenced to a component class can be characterized by the following parameters:

  • Mandatory: indicates whether a value is mandatory for validation
  • Technical: indicates whether the user has access to this tag
  • Read-only: indicates whether or not the user can modify the tag value
  • Multivalued: indicates whether or not the tag can have several values
  • Default value: the default value when the tag is not filled in
  • A validation mask (regular expression): if defined, overrides the one defined in the tag class
  • Display order
  • A description to display a tooltip
info

The default value is set by FlowerDocs Core only at the time of creation: if the tag value is emptied, the default value will not be set.
On creation, the default value is set if the tag is non-mandatory and not present. If it is non-mandatory with an empty value, then the empty value is set.
On the GUI side, the default value is set when the component creation form is opened.

Default value​

Default values are only valid at creation: if the tag value is empty, the default value will not be set.

Variables can be used as default values:

  • ``$`dayDate```: the current date
  • ${user.id}: the identifier of the connected user
