Defining Screens
You create screens by creating new objects and defining object properties in Siebel Tools. There is no wizard to walk you through the process.
- From the Object Explorer, select Screen.
- Choose Edit > New Record to add a new Screen object definition.
- Set the following properties for the new Screen record:
Figure 161 shows the definition for the Accounts Screen.
- From the Object Explorer, select the Screen object type. The Object List Editor opens.
- Choose Edit > New Record to add a new screen object definition.
- Set the following properties for the new Screen View object:
- Menu Text. Both the Screen View Menu Text property and the Screen Menu Item display value show up in the Site Map. The former shows up as a subitem under the latter.
- Sequence. Specifies the order in which the views will appear in the cascading menu for the Screen menu item.
If you want the view to appear in the View Category Show: combo box, set the following properties. Typically, Category Menu Text and Category Viewbar Text are the same value.
- Category. This is a logical representation of what category the view belongs to.
- Category Menu Text. The display value that appears within the combo box.
- Category Viewbar Text. The last is the display text of the View tab under which it appears.
See About The User Interface Navigational Paradigm for more information.
Figure 162 shows the Account Address view definition in the Object List Editor and Properties windows.
The Applets window shows only the available applets in either icon or list form. An applet is considered available if it is associated with a business component that is present in the business object for this view.
You can delete an applet on the layout by selecting it and pressing the DELETE key.
