Axure Tutorial What is the purpose of the dynamic panel

Dynamic panel is a very frequent component used in Axure prototyping, and its main purpose is to achieve some dynamic interaction effects.

So, if the dynamic panel uses unfamiliar words, the production of Axure prototype will have a great impact, then the dynamic panel can do what. There are several main aspects:

1. Hide and Show

2. Slide effect

3. Drag effect

4, multi-state effect above these effects are reflected in the Mobile Panel's component properties.

What kind of functionality can be achieved through these attributes? Give a few examples.

1. Show hidden effect

We often do prototypes when we need to click on the button and there are some elements that are not on the interface, such as:

Scenario A: The login function does not fill in the user name when clicking the login button, showing the user to fill in the user name prompt.

Scenario B: When we need to do something in the user, a prompt pops up. The prompt box disappears when the user taps the OK button on the cue box.

For example, the above scenarios need to use the display hiding effect of the dynamic panel. The dynamic panel's initial state is hidden or displayed, and can be implemented by right-clicking the dynamic panel-editing options-set to display (or) to hide.

2. Sliding Effect of dynamic panel

Unlike the show hide effect, the slide effect of a dynamic panel is usually triggered by other interactive events,

It may be that you click on a button, or it may be implemented when the page loads. Like what:

Scenario A: The effect of some scrolling text on the site.

Scenario B: Click the login button, the login panel pop-up effect.

The general sliding effect requires a complex excitation process, such as a onpageload event through a page.

Now, not too much to explain here, later through the case to introduce, it is more understandable.

3, the dynamic panel drag effect

Dynamic panel drag effect, for mobile Internet product prototype is necessary, mainly for the app's product prototype.

Used to implement some of the effects of the panel being dragged.

Scenario A: The mobile phone's sliding unlock function.

Scenario B: Portrait browsing of mobile pages. Scenario C: The horizontal page change function of a mobile phone.

The action of dynamic panel dragging is very important, and it can make a variety of effects by combining the system's own variables. For example, axure itself is not a random number function, but in the drag of the dynamic panel, it is possible to achieve the function of random numbers, this will be in detail in the following random dice case, of course, if you axure the use of relatively rich experience, now you can go to the small building elements to download the random boson element for reference.

4. Multi-State effect

The multi-state effect of dynamic panels is very common in Web site prototypes, and it greatly reduces the number of dynamic panels. For example: Hide a panel, show the effect of another dynamic panel, you can use the system of a dynamic panel of different states to achieve, as well as the dynamic panel slide slip-out effect can sometimes be achieved by state replacement. The tab effect in the prototype of the Web page can also be achieved by dynamic panel state switching.

The different states of the dynamic panel can also realize the picture carousel effect, the graphics rotation effect and so on.

In Axure, you can convert a component or multiple components into a dynamic panel, in fact, put these components in a dynamic panel state 1 inside, that is, the dynamic panel is actually a multi-layer container, each layer of the container can contain multiple components.

We can add multiple states to the dynamic Panel in the Dynamic Panel manager (the lower-right corner of the software interface, not in the navigation bar-view option), and can adjust the order of these States to achieve different display effects. The dynamic panel displays the topmost state in the dynamic panel Manager by default.
