Hi Sunil

DashBoard only allows visibility changes for controls that are directly inside of an <abs/> tag.  If you want to make a dynamically-sized grid, you will need to use ogScript to generate the grid content and rebuild it when the dimensions change.

The most efficient way to do this is by using an <api/> tag with something we call a "content function".  When you use this, the <api/> tag is replaced with the OGLML generated by calling the content function.  In the example I have below, I also put the <api/> tag inside of another <simplegrid/> so that I had a easy way to trigger a rebuild and process the <api/> tag with the new row/column count:

<abs contexttype="opengear" id="_top" keepalive="false" style="">   <meta>      <params>         <param access="1" constraint="1.0;100.0;1.0;100.0;1" constrainttype="INT_STEP_RANGE" name="Columns" oid="cols" precision="0" type="INT16" value="3" widget="spinner"/>         <param access="1" constraint="1.0;100.0;1.0;100.0;1" constrainttype="INT_STEP_RANGE" name="Rows" oid="rows" precision="0" type="INT16" value="3" widget="spinner"/>      </params>   </meta>   <label height="26" left="42" name="Columns:" style="txt-align:east" top="49" width="73"/>   <label height="26" left="42" name="Rows:" style="txt-align:east;" top="91" width="73"/>   <param expand="true" height="35" left="124" oid="cols" showlabel="false" top="43" width="102"/>   <param expand="true" height="35" left="123" oid="rows" showlabel="false" top="85" width="102"/>   <simplegrid height="374" id="dynamic-grid-holder" left="36" rows="1" top="141" width="913">      <api contentfunction="generate">function generate(){   var content = "&lt;simplegrid  rows=\"" + params.getValue('rows', 0) + "\" cols=\"" + params.getValue('cols', 0) + "\"&gt;";   for (var row = 0; row &lt; params.getValue('rows', 0); row++)   {      for (var col = 0; col &lt; params.getValue('cols', 0); col++)      {         content += "&lt;button name=\" ROW: " + (row + 1) + " COL: " + (col + 1) + "\"/&gt;";      }   }      content += "&lt;/simplegrid&gt;";   return content;}</api>   </simplegrid>   <button buttontype="push" height="71" left="238" name="Update" top="45" width="175">      <task tasktype="ogscript">ogscript.reload('dynamic-grid-holder');</task>   </button></abs>
