In this third part of my plugin series, I want to take a look at some visualization stuff. Mainly, I had to come up with some display options to show numbers in a certain context to the user. In this case, I had to display sentiment values for s specific text coming from IBM Watson Natural Language Services.

In the first volume of this series, I took a look at dualselect to build a nice select/deselect interface for a listbox. In this part, I will take a look on formatting table data in a convenient way to add pagination, search, sort and action into a table. Like in the first example, my table will be fed from a backend Java Bean.

Within the last couple of weeks I have been busy implementing a first Watson AI powered product implementation at a customer site using a Domino/Xpages based frontend. The Watson part of this application will be something to talk about later on but I wanted to take the chance to blog about a couple of frontend components and plugins for the Xpages part, that I found truly handy along the way.

A couple of weeks back a customers asked me how to do Barcodes in XPages as they needed them in their application to be printed to a document scanning system. After looking into the application, I realized that they had been using a Code39 barcode font in Notes previously to create barcodes in the Notes Client.

It's been a while since my last coding post but over the past rainy weekend, I had a bit of time on my hands to build an XPages App that shows marker data coming from a Domino Database as Markers on an interactive map. I was looking for an open source solution, I came across the beautiful JavaScript library leaflet.js

Over the past weeks I have been working on a large XPages Project that got me into using more advanced GUI Controls than those coming with Designer. The customer was already using DHTMLX Controls in other products so I decided to go with this framework with the XPages side of things as well.

Lately, I have been working on an XPiNC Project in parallel to a project for a Web CRM System based on XPages. As we also created the web layout (and me not being the greatest designer at all or, to be honest, I am not at all good at that), I came across a few tools that did some nice jobs for me and that I would like to share. They all are online resources and a lot of you might know them already.
