To change the general attributes of a control, click on a blank part of the Field Control Editor or clear any previous selection by Ctrl+Click. The available settings are displayed on the right part of the screen:

  • Extends Parent: You can extend Details and Default controls without the need to copy the parent definition to your configuration. For further details, see Extending a Control.
  • Attributes: You can define additional properties for the entire control, e. g. the number columns and column widths.

To define a control attribute:

  1. Enter the name (key) of the attribute.
  2. Click (Add).
  3. Enter the value of the control attribute.

    Or click (Edit in Popup), enter the value in the code box and click Apply.

  4. Save the control definition.

To delete an attribute click (Delete).
