I recently stumbled upon Triggers and managed to shoehorn one into the primary page of the LCA I've been building. I want to incorporate the same triggered refresh on Tables on other pages of the LCA but it seems like the trigger only operates when viewing the page it's on. Is there a way to designate a Trigger as some sort of Master trigger so that one trigger can be called from anywhere in the LCA rather than needing a trigger on each page of the LCA with a Table that needs refreshing?
Hi Matt,
It is not possible to use the trigger when it isn't on a visible page or panel. When the component isn't loaded, the timer doesn't run. Are you looking for the specific refresh time functionality it offers or the manual trigger button?
Then I'm afraid there is no way to work around this. Components only function when they are visible on a page or panel. We do not load components that aren't visible to maintain good performance and loading times.
Out of curiosity, would you happen to know a way to delete the phantom Triggers that get created when the LCA decides that there isn't enough space to place the Trigger? I have an LCA with 3 phantom Triggers that aren't accessible to delete even with every other item on the page deleted.
If the 'phantom' Triggers were indeed created because there wasn't enough space left on the page (this can happen with 'fit to view' enabled), then you can remove some components to make space and then reload the page. After the reload, the components should be visible again.
I'm looking for timer functionality. The main LCA page is auto-refreshing interface bandwidth and alarm panels and I want to cascade that auto-refresh into the other pages in the LCA.
