MashZone - Simulation in display mode

Hi Nicolas,

I think this could be accomplished using MashZone. It highly depends on the way your data feed is organized.

User inputs in general are explained in this article which explains how to send a numeric value in form of a SQL query to a database. Instead of crafting a statement based on the user input you may select rows of a spreadsheet instead. Or you may do some calculations, e.g. do a rule of three to convert units or currencies into each other.

User inputs may provide values to all feed operators which have a connector on their right hand side.

Finally you need to find a control which enables MashApp viewers to enter a user input value and which is appropriate for your use case. For numeric values with a known range there is the slider. For a list of well known values, e.g. planets of our sun system, there is the spin control or combo box. If there is not any restriction you may use the input field which can be typed to validate and return one of MashZone's three data types.

Regards

Stephan
