Attributes Tab

The App Inspector

The App Inspector is your best friend during development as it provides a complete overview of your App.

It is organized into Tabs. Each Tab is relevant to a particular workspace. You can double click a Tab to detach it into its own floating window.

Clicking the small icon on the far right of the App Inspector title bar will detach it into its own floating window.

Double clicking the window title bar when it is floating will attach it back into place.

The Attributes Tab

The Attributes Tab contains the App Attributes for Pages, Sections, FormItems and GridColumns.

Pro Tip

If the App Inspector is closed, double-click a UI Element's header or caption to slide in the Attributes Dialog.

Changing Attributes

Most attributes take effect in the Page Builder as you change them:

For some attributes - where the data needs to be reloaded, as in the Section Filter shown below - the Apply Changes and Revert Changes buttons are displayed in the actionbar. Click the green tick to Apply Changes.

Actionbar Buttons

As shown above, the Apply Changes and Revert Changes buttons appear in the actionbar when confirmation is needed to commit a change. The actionbar has four further buttons:

Toggle Editable: click this to toggle between locking the attributes and making them editable.
Refresh: click this to refresh the Attributes panel, e.g. if you manually resize a grid column or edit a formitem caption in the Page Builder.
Undo: undo attribute changes.
Redo: redo attribute changes.
