Hide data links with no records

Essentials 3.9 includes a Visible property for data links - this will definitely be useful for creating hidden data links, thanks for including it.

An enhancement suggestion for the GVS (& HTML?) is to have data links that contain no records be hidden by default - empty links take up valuable space in the feature details window. 

 

Thanks,

Nate

  I am actually trying to use this "visible" field in a DataLink, and I am confused about its purpose.

  Let me explain:

  In a datalink called "myDataLink" , I create a SQL that returns a field called "locationsid"

  I want to use the token {myDataLink.locationsid} in a URL in my layer Feature Long Description. Everything works fine: Geocortex substitutes the {myDataLink.locationsid} text with my ID from the SQL result.

  However, there is now a new tab called "myDataLink" in the Expand View: I don't want to see it - .

  So I uncheck the "Visible" tick box in myDataLink : but if I do this it stops working: the conversion of {myDataLink.locationsid} is no longer done by Geocortex (making my URL incorrect)

  What is the purpose of this "visible" check box in DataLink definition. If hiding it prevents it from working altogether?
