In this page you configure what template will be used to display an element, based on what property.

Template:DisplayArchiMateElementCustom will call this page to see what the variable DisplayTemplate should become - or stay the default Template:DisplayArchiMateElementDefault.

Properties of an ArchiMate Element can be recalled by calling {{#var:NAME OF THE PROPERTY}}. The code of this page shows three ways the template can be set.

By default, anything that's set will be overridden by the last rule: if the property WikiTemplate is set and a template exists with the that name as a subpage of DisplayArchiMateElement, that will be used. That last rule can be disabled - but is ill-advised.

Examples:

{{#ifeq:{{#var:EXAMPLE PROPERTY}}|EXAMPLE VALUE|{{#vardefine:DisplayElementTemplate|DisplayArchiMateElement/bar}}}}

if 'Objecttype' is set, look through the list of 'switch'-parameters; if nothing is found, keep DisplayTemplate:

{{#if:{{#var:Objecttype|}}|{{#vardefine:DisplayTemplate|
{{#switch:{{ucfirst:{{#var:Objecttype}}}}
|Klasse=DisplayArchiMateElement/Klasse
|{{#var:DisplayTemplate|}}
}}}}<!--end if Objecttype exists-->
}}

Use another property than WikiTemplate to select the page (unless WikiTemplate exists):

{{#ifexist:DisplayArchiMateElement/{{#var:Objecttype|,}}|{{#vardefine:DisplayTemplate|{{#var:Objecttype}}}}}}
