I am working on building a complex F1 theme and need some help with two things:
-
I’ve created an overlap group for each of the 24 F1 races next season. How can I dynamically show / hide each respective overlap Group depending on the date / time? I want to display the upcoming race info automatically.
-
Is there any way to access real time data like drivers / constructors championship standings, etc and display it in KLWP?
Thank you 
Hi there,
In regards to your questions…
- You can set visibility of an Overlap Group from its Layer tab. Use this formula example to check today’s date against any date range you want:
$if(dp(00d)>=dp(2024y01M01d) && dp(00d)<dp(2024y05M31d), Always, Remove)$ ➞ if today’s date is within the date range, then show the Overlap Group or else Remove it from the display.
- In order to get any data from any sources through an API service, you can use the Web Get function:
$wg()$
I hope this would help.


This is exactly what I needed. Thank you very much!
