Creating a Text Item

To create a text item:

  1. In the Object Navigator, click the plus icon icon to add a node beside the desired block node.
    Oracle Forms expands the block node and displays its subnodes.
  2. Click the Items node.
  3. Click the Create button toolbar icon to create an object in the toolbar.
    A new item with a default name is inserted under the Items node.
  4. Double-click the object icon next to the newly created item to display the Property Palette.
  5. Under the General node, set the Item Type property to Text Item. (This is the default setting when a new item is created.)
  6. Under the Physical node, set the Canvas property to the name of the desired canvas.

Note: To display an item at runtime, you must assign it to a canvas.
