Shape
Using the shape widget, you can enhance analytic applications by adding shapes with hyperlinks.
The shape widget is used in both stories and analytic applications. Only the properties specific for the analytics designer are listed here.

Property Description |
---|---|---|
Name |
String |
Defines the unique name of a shape. If you do not enter a name, the system takes the default name (for example Shape_1). |
Besides adding a hyperlink to a shape in the same way as you do in a story, you can call the hyperlink API in your scripts to customize more scenarios. If you set different hyperlinks for a shape in both ways above, the hyperlink defined via API has higher precedence. And noted that different from hyperlinks added in a story, hyperlinks defined in your scripts only support external URLs and will always be opened in a new tab.
More detailed information about the API is available in SAP Help Portal at Analytics Designer API Reference.
