Guidelines for Using the Grid Layout Group Theme

Observe the following guidelines when using the Grid Layout Group Theme:

• The Grid layout feature is not supported for multi-level grandchild control templates, which recursively includes the group theme to show a grid table inside of another grid table.

• The grid layout theme should be used judiciously. The performance of the Siebel Product Configurator UI degrades with the number of controls displayed within the page.

• The grid layout theme can be used to control the display of all types of controls in the interface, including controls based on fields, relationships, attributes, linked items and resources.

• The following UI Control templates can be used with the Grid layout Group Theme.

  With the Web template JS (RELATIONSHIP):

  • Check Box GridLayout JS (eCfgControlCheckGridLayoutJS)

  • Radio Buttons GridLayout JS (CfgControlRadioGridLayoutJS)

  • Combo Box with Price Attribute Grid JS (eCfgControlComboAddPriceAttribGridJS)

    With the Web template JS (ATTRIBUTES):

  • Radio Button GridLayout for Attribute JS (eCfgAttributeRadioGridLayoutJS.)
  Note: If these templates are not available within the UI Control pick applet, then manually create a record in the pick applet and map it to the appropriate Web template files.
