Design tab of Form window
The Design tab of a Form editor window enables you to see the structure of a form and its components and to see a preview of the way a form will look in the InForm application. This tab has two panes:
- The top pane consists of a hierarchical representation of the structure of a form and its components. Each type of form component is represented by an icon and a tree control that you can expand or contract.
To display all components defined for a component type, click the plus icon (
). To hide all individual components, click the minus icon (
).Along with representations of form components, this tab also shows any rule contexts that are attached to each form component.
To display the definition of an attached rule, double-click its icon in the Design tab.
- The bottom pane consists of a preview of the form as it will appear online in the InForm application.
With this tab of the Form editor window, you can:
- Create a new form and define its properties.
- Add new or existing components to the form definition and define their properties.
- Reorganize or modify a form and its components.
- Define a column or control path for an existing data mapping.
- Annotate forms with metadata as well as data mappings.
