1. Views of the Object Designer

The Object Designer has four different views, which can be selected via icons on the left tab menu:

Depending on the object that is opened, a different view is displayed than the initial view.

All changes in the Object Details, Design or Flow view must be saved before they take effect.

2. Attributes, Config and Events Tabs

The Object Details panel in the upper right side has three tabs:

  • Attributes: Edit the advanced settings of the object.

  • Config: Edit the standard settings of the object.

  • Events: Edit and configure the events for the object, e.g. onClick or afterLeaving.

3. Browse Catalog of Objects

The Browse catalog of objects panel in the lower right side allows you to search for a specific object and add it to the opened object via drag & drop.
