How Siebel CRM Renders Objects in Siebel Open UI

The following figure illustrates how Siebel CRM uses a physical renderer, which is a JavaScript file that Siebel Open UI uses to render the user interface. A physical renderer contains instructions that describe how to render the physical presentation and interaction for a user interface element, such as a grid, carousel, form, tree, tab, menu, button, and so on. Each physical renderer references a presentation model, and it uses the metadata, data, and behavior that this presentation model defines to render an object in the client.
