InitVar fixed value not being applied

Solved1.07K views7th July 2023InitVar SetVar Visio

Hi Dojo,

I am trying to Set up a value for my Dashboard so that when the Visual Element Page is being loaded I would already have a value in place and not  after the variable is being selected from a drop-down list.

For this to happened I have tried to set up at Page level in Visio: InitVar --> "hardcoded value"

What am I missing ?

I tried also Execute at Page level

Set|Element|Parameter|Value|SetTrigger=ValueChanged.

Normally an InitVar on itself should indeed set the variable at page loading.

It helps to display the content of the variable while debugging.  Give it a try without the Execute and the ExecurteSetsOnInit in the Options to check the content of the variable.
https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Basic_Functionality/Visio/session_variables/Making_a_shape_display_the_current_value_of_a_variable.html

In case the InitVar on itself does not fill in the value on the shape you display the content on, I would suggest to send the Visio to our Techsupport.
Potentially better is doing an export to dmimport package of the element and sending this to our Support.
