The power user can set the following preferences for the
Guided Navigation component.
The edit controls on the
Guided Navigation component allow you to configure
the layout so only facets relevant to the end user are exposed.
- Data source controls:
Select from the available data sources in the drop-down list, and then click
Update data source to bind your selection to the
component.
- Enable type-ahead:
Check to include the
Type-ahead search box from dimensions with many
dimension values.
Important: Dimension search wildcarding must be enabled
in the MDEX Engine in order for type-ahead to work in Discovery Framework
components.
- Maximum type-ahead
suggestions: Set the maximum total number of type-ahead suggestions the
MDEX Engine will offer. If fewer results are available, the number returned
will be less than this maximum. Note that this control is only visible if
Disable type-ahead is not selected.
- Maximum refinements to
show in a single dimension: Set the maximum number of refinements per
dimension to be displayed. This can help prevent your end users from being
overwhelmed by an excessive number of results.
- Target page: Set the
target page for any page transition. Page transitions allow a component on one
page in your Discovery Framework application to pass data to a component on
another page.
- Attribute list: In
this pane, the power user can:
- Search for an attribute
by name.
- Check which individual
attributes or attribute sets to include. Attributes that are not selected are
hidden from the end user's view.
- Select attributes that
will appear expanded by default in the end user's view. (The end user may
choose to collapse them.)
- Select attributes that
can be negative as well as positive refinements. A negative refinement, when
selected, is excluded from results.
