Tutorials using Cond. Fill (Boolean)

What Cond. Fill (Boolean) does

One bit, two colours. Select the element, name the boolean parameter, choose the colour for true and the colour for false. There is nothing else to configure and nothing else to get wrong.

Use it where the fact really is binary and the graphic is entitled to own the rule: a lamp that is lit or not, a hand valve that is open or shut, a motor that is running or stopped. If a third state exists — faulted, travelling, not commissioned — this is the wrong binding, and adding a second one to the same element to cover it gives you two rules that can both be true at once.

Either colour can be fixed or come from a parameter. Fixing both is the fastest thing to build; making them parameters is what lets one widget follow a site’s colour standard instead of imposing yours.

As with every fill binding, the element’s design-time fill is removed when you add it, and putting it on a group clears the fill from the shapes inside.
