Consider you have multiple UI elements all performing a similar function, like elements of a dropdown menu on a page. Instead of having to create different Smart Tips for each element, Whatfix enables you to select all the similar UI elements and create a single Smart Tip that appears when any of the elements are selected.
Here’s a GIF of how Multi-element Selection works.
This feature is only available for Flows, and Smart Tips (excluding Validation Tips) with On Hover/Focus over the element set as the appearance style of the Smart Tip.
Use the following steps to use Multi-element Selection on your application:
- Log in to your application, and then launch the Whatfix Studio.
-
Select the type of content (Flows or Smart Tips) you want to create.
-
Click + Add Step.
-
To enable Multi-select mode, press Shift + S on your keyboard while selecting the element.
-
Once the Multi-select mode is enabled, select the desired element.
All the similar elements on the page are highlighted.
On selecting an element, if you notice that Whatfix is not highlighting any elements or highlighting the wrong elements, then click any other element that you think is similar. This provides Whatfix with more data on what should be considered similar and improve selection.
-
Confirm if all your desired elements are selected, and then click Confirm Selection.
-
Create content by adding relevant information to the tooltip.
-
Configure the tooltip and save the created content.
Use Cases
Here are some use cases that are possible using Multi-element selection on-page:
-
Add Smart Tips to the edit icons in each row of a table.
-
Ensure that the step completion rules are met even if the end user clicks any of the elements of a table in an application.
