By defining property bindings, you can link specific properties of an element directly to an external data source. Once bound, the element’s property will automatically update in real-time when the value in the data source changes. For example, if you bind the Visible property of an element to a value in an XML file, the element will automatically show or hide as that value changes.

​
Property Bindings Overview

The Property Bindings section lists all element properties that can be dynamically bound to a data source. To set up a binding, you must specify at least the following:
  • Data Provider (the external source)
  • Column (the specific data field)
  • Row (the data record)

Important Notes and Limitations:

  • Property binding options vary depending on the type of element. Not all properties can be bound for every element type.
  • Limitation on playlist duration scrolling: Property bindings do not detect or follow scrolling based on local playlist duration. This type of scrolling is element-specific and cannot synchronize with property bindings.
  • Limitation inside Table Elements: When an element is placed inside a Table Element, data refreshes occur in sync with the Table’s refresh cycle, not independently.

Tip:

For more information on how to write proper binding values, refer to the Property Bindings Values page that details the exact formats and notation for binding values (e.g., booleans, colors, sizes).
