View page - Title

1. General information

Title is a “H1” or “H2” style title.

The new title can be created as follows from the view page using the toolbar with controls:

First, clicking on the view page determines the position in which the new title should be placed. This will highlight the selected position with a gray horizontal line. Then just click on the “Title” item in the toolbar of the view page, fill in the attributes of the new control in the newly opened dialog, and then save. This will insert a new title at a pre-selected location on the view page.
If the desired position is not determined before inserting a new title, the new title will be inserted at the end of the view page.

For each existing control, a pencil icon appears to the left of the control page to change or delete the control's settings.
Individual controls can be moved vertically on the view page using the Drag&Drop method. Moving consists of grabbing the control, preferably behind its name, and then dragging it to the desired location on the view page.
Controls can be moved only with the “Drag&Drop” check box located above the toolbar with controls selected. For security reasons, this check box is cleared after each login to the application, so that a control is not moved by accident.

Headline text
- User defined – the title text is defined by a text constant, variable, or a combination of both, written in the text field below the radio button
- From query – the title text defines the result of the database query, which is evaluated when opening the view page

The dictionary lists the names of other controls, forms, view pages, categories, applications, and application groups used across the entire application.
The dictionary search is used to design the correct control name and to maintain the consistency of the nomenclature throughout the application so that controls with the same meaning located in different places in the application are named in the same way.

Graphic type of title
- Type A – Level heading “H1”
- Type B – Level heading “H2” with a colored background taken from the appearance settings from the column “Form – Left column”

Rights define a list of user groups and users who have permission to display the control on the view page.
For a new control, the rights are prefilled from the control at the position selected before inserting it; if no position is selected, from the rights of the view page.

The “Replace rights to other controls” feature is used to unify rights across the entire view page for controls that are related in terms of rights.
Thanks to the “Show...” link, it is possible to display a list of all controls on the view page, including the settings of the rights of these controls. A check box is displayed for each control to select it. When the control is saved, the same rights are then set for the selected controls.
An alternative for unifying rights within the entire view page is the overview of the rights settings of all controls, displayed by the “Show summary...” link on the “Rights” tab in the view page settings.

Select the view page on which the control is located.
The drop-down list contains the view pages located in the same application and in the same category as the view page on which the control stands. For a view page without a category, it offers only view pages without a category. For a new control, it contains only the current view page.
