What's the name of this UI pattern?

Question

Sometimes when some feature requires many different settings, they are written in a cloze-like text, where the gaps (=variables) are displayed as comboboxes or hyperlinks which open some kind of lookup list.

Example:

If the available space is less than [10%/5%/1MB/...] then [send e-mail to admin/play a sound/...]

The Outlook rules wizard is another good example of this.

What's the name of this UI pattern?

Answer 1

From browsing existing patterns sites it seems this is maybe a mix of >1 pattern?

Fill in the Blanks (see also)

Input Prompt

Constraint Input

Personally, I think you've maybe even hatched a pattern and should submit it somewhere... :-)

Answer 2

I think that's a "Table Filter"

at least thats what we called it when I worked on a clone of that outlook rules wizard.

Answer 3

'Rule editor', perhaps? That's the OS X term, anyway.
