Starting with the release of Strategy ONE (March 2024), dossiers are also known as dashboards.
Automatically Change Pages of a Dossier Every Two Seconds
Note: The code only works in Strategy Library, and not in Web. The code needs to be placed in an HTML Container, and only on the first page of your dossier.
This code snippet loops through all the pages of a dossier. This can be used to display a dossier on a large screen or as a screensaver. Great to keep up with all your financial or sales data while walking around the office! Place the code on the first page within the dossier to make it work. When the last page is reached it loops back to the first one again. The time period for which a dossier page is displayed is set to 2 seconds in the sample but can be changed to any number (in a factor of milliseconds). Check it out!
What's the code snippet?
<script>
setInterval(changePage, 2000); // Wait 2 seconds
function changePage(){
currentPage = dossier.dossierCmd.getCurrentPage(); chapters = dossier.dossierCmd.getChapters();
for (x = 0; x < chapters.length; x++){
//console.log(chapters[x].name);
for (y = 0; y < chapters[x].pages.length; y++){
//console.log(chapters[x].pages[y].name);
if (chapters[x].pages[y].key == currentPage.key) {
if (y < chapters[x].pages.length-1)
dossier.dossierCmd.gotoPage(chapters[x].pages[y+1]);
else if (x < chapters.length-1)
dossier.dossierCmd.gotoPage(chapters[x+1].pages[0]);
else
dossier.dossierCmd.gotoPage(chapters[0].pages[0]);
}
}
}
}
changePage;
</script>
