>Selecting Child Page Segments defines the currently selected segment as a segment that has one or multiple child segments. When "Child Page Segments" is selected the "Data Content" (Template and datasource) configuration is hidden and a new segment showing the Display Type and Segment Arrangement as either rows or columns is shown. Each of the child segments can be further defined using the "Content Type" selection when that segment is selected as the current segment.

The Display Type options are.

• All segments - The default setting

  All the child segments that you add are displayed together, as you define them in the design.

• One at a time

  Displays only one child segment at a time (via a switch panel widget).

• Single Expanded

  Displays all the child segments but only one can be in an expanded state.
  
  

All of the child segments that you define are displayed without restriction, as in the image on the right.

Two child segments 9in a parent segment), with a display type of "All Segments" and Segment Arrangement of "Columns".

The child segments you define are displayed based on a piece of control data - in the case of the example on the right - the control data is a clasification with the calues "FirstSegment" and SecondSegment" (this is displayed in the UI as radio buttons in the example shown).

The Classification is help in the datasource UIControl as the property "SegmentControl" and the child segments are given a SegmentID the same as the control i.e. "FirstSegment" and SecondSegment".

Whichever child segment's segment ID corresponds to the valie in the "Visible child control path" datasource value is the segment that is displayed. If no value is in the datasource path then the first child segment is shown.

Please note that the parent segment and the child segment MUST all have segment IDs included for this control to work.

Single Expanded works together with the "Accordion" function in Evoke (the "support collapse/expland" on a segment header) to create a traditional accordion style arrangement i.e. opening (expanding) one segment collapses the other segments.
