Update v2.9.8.0

Calculation Changes

This update includes a new calculation feature which might change the calculation of existing forms.

With version 2.9.8.0, you can customize your forms even more! Now, you can retrieve an element’s raw value (i.e. the value which is actually shown), an element’s calculated value with subtotal (i.e. the calculated value with its subtotal value added) and an element’s calculated value without subtotal (i.e. the calculated value without its subtotal value).

Use raw target value

This element uses the raw input value of Element B.

Use calculated target value without subtotal

This element shows the calculated value of element B without its subtotal value.

Element B contains a calculation row to multiply the input value by 5, so the following value is returned:

[calculated value] = [input value] + [calculations]

Example: A = 3, B = 10, B contains a calculation row: *5

[calculated_value] = 10 * 5 = 50

Use calculated target value with subtotal

The above element (‘Use calculated target value with subtotal’) shows the calculated value of element B with its respective subtotal value.

The general formula for ‘Use calculation value with Subtotal’ is:

[subtotal value] + [calculated value]

Since the plugin takes the subtotal from the previous element as the basis (unless you override it in the first calculation row with the equals operator), the returned value will be:

[calculated value] = B * 5 [subtotal] = A + [calculated value] [returned value] = [subtotal] + [calculated value]

Example: A = 3, B = 10

[calculated value] = 10 * 5 = 50 [subtotal] = 3 + 50 = 53 [returned value] = 53 + 50 = 103

Summary

Network Chart

Another great feature is the network chart which visualizes the relationship of element calculation and conditionals. Take a look:

Network Chart: BMI Calculator

Network Chart: Loan Calculator

Minimum / Maximum Selectable Checkboxes
