Alleo has the capability to perform the following operations on data in a container:

  • Sum

  • Maximum

  • Minimum

  • Average

You can display this data on a sticky note or text asset by performing the following steps:

  1. Select a sticky note or text asset.

  2. Access object settings by clicking the three dots in the submenu.

  3. Click Data.

  4. Under Computed Variables, add a computed variable by clicking into the "Add computed variable" field, typing a custom name for the variable, and selecting the plus icon or pressing enter.
    ​

  5. Once you have created the variable, select the following:

    1. Operation (Sum, Maximum, Minimum, or Average).

    2. Field (Container sort value or reaction value).

    3. Select the container by container title or use the container selector tool to select the desired container. (No need to select a container if you only want the value of individual sticky note to be displayed)
      ​

  6. Click Save.

  7. Now enter the name of your newly created variable inside curly brackets.

    1. E.g., in the above example, we can access the mySum value by typing {mySum} into a sticky note or text asset.

  8. When you deselect the input field, the {variable} will show the result.
