Adding the List widget to a view
You can add a backlog to any custom view or custom workflow that your organization wants to add to Serena Agile.
- From the application toolbar, click Setup and select Configuration.
- In the Configuration module, select Module Designer.
- Under Modules, select an existing module or click New to add a module. (If you click New, enter the name at the prompt and click OK.)
- Under Module-Tabs, click New to add a new tab. At the prompt, enter the name of the view, and then click OK.
- Select the layout type. The most commonly used layout types are single, over-under, and side-by-side. (The fixed-size and fixed-position layout types do not support the Serena Agile widgets.)
- Select the List widget, click (and hold down) the mouse button, drag it to the layout pane on which you want it added, and then release the mouse button.
- Set the properties.
- Click Save All.
Wireup Options
When you add the List widget to a layout pane, you can use the Widget Wireup to synchronize the List widget with another widget, such as a Burndown Chart.
The List widget can perform the following actions:
Action | Description |
---|---|
Wire_Refresh | The Wire_Refresh action allows a Widget Wireup to refresh the information that is available in a backlog or a list. When information changes on the widget that has been configured as the publisher (using the datachange event), updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber. |
Wire_SourceSelect | The Wire_SourceSelect action allows a Widget Wireup to load information in a backlog, a burndown chart, or a list that is determined by the selected interval. When the selected interval on the widget that has been configured as the publisher changes (using the sourcechange event), updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber. |
Wire_UpdateRow | The Wire_UpdateRow action allows a Widget Wireup to refresh the details of a single row in a backlog or list. When the details of a work item are updated on the widget that has been configured as the publisher (using the onsave event), updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber. |
The List widget can perform the following publish options:
Publish Option | Description |
---|---|
/serena/grid/datachange | The datachange event allows a Widget Wireup to listen for changes to any work item in a backlog. When changes are detected on the widget that has been configured as the publisher, updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber (using the Wire_Refresh action). |
/serena/grid/rowselectchange | The rowselectchange event allows a Widget Wireup to listen for when changes have been made to a specific row in a backlog. When changes are detected on the widget that has been configured as the publisher, updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber (using the Wire_Refresh action). |
/serena/grid/sourcechange | The sourcechange event allows a Widget Wireup to listen for when a specific interval is selected for viewing in a backlog, storyboard, or burndown chart. When the selected interval changes on widget that has been configured as the publisher, the information on the widget that is configured as the subscriber is updated to match the information for the new interval (using the Wire_SourceSelect action). |

The List widget has the following properties:
