Status LEDs are shown in UBIK® Android client's Content Browser for objects with status information, namely classified by at least one of the following classifications:

Status icon

The status LED is essentially a status icon image with different coloring. Which icon to display is determined in the following way.

  • It there is a server configured status icon for an object (namely the object is classified by the object with status icon classification), that icon is displayed as the status LED;
  • Otherwise, UBIK® searches for a locally/client configured status icon to display;
  • If none of the above exists, a default icon is displayed.

Status color

If an object is classified by the status color classification and has a valid status color, the color value is used to colorize/tint the icon displayed in the status LED. Otherwise, the icon will be displayed in its original color.

UI representation

Action bar

When the currently browsed object has status information, a status LED is shown as an overlay on the content icon in the action bar.

Object list

In the ContentBrowser's object list (either root list or child list) the status LED is shown for respectively configured objects.

Changing the icon or the colour

If the property isn't hidden or write-protected, the colour can be changed by editing the respective property. Same goes for the actual icon.

Another possibility is the respective properties being hidden but adjusted automatically by customizing, either on the server or on the client (programmatic customizing is required for the latter).
