Creating a new element

Creating a new application item (using a form as an example)

To create a new form – one of the basic application elements – go to the Library, and then to the tab Formsmodule. In the top right corner of the screen there is a Add formbutton that initiates the creation process.

After clicking the button, a window will open where you should fill in the basic data:

• Form name – in accordance with the naming convention (more in: Naming conventions for application elements),

• Location in the repository – the place where the form will be saved,

• Number of columns – set to 16 by default; it can be changed (more in: Page editing),

• Description – an optional field, useful for documenting the form’s purpose.

After confirming (the Add formbutton) an editor with an empty form template will open in the Stepstab. Adding components is possible after switching to the Form tab (1), and saving the form to the repository is done by clicking the Save (2).
