Update Controls effectively render your application user interface in HTML 5 Document Type (standards mode). Rendering your application in HTML5 Document Type ensures cross-browser and cross-platform compatibility and use of the latest HTML markup, among other benefits.
You can update a number of controls automatically. Other controls may require a manual update. For complete details, see Upgrading deprecated and outdated controls on the PDN.
If a section contains a deprecated control or a control for which there is an improved alternative, a warning displays, along with an Update Controls button.
Click Update Controls to automatically update deprecated controls in the section.
You can add custom controls in the Update Controls feature. Then, when a section containing these controls is opened, a message displays, along with the Update Controls button. This enables you to all update occurrences of that control, along with other deprecated controls already included in the update.
See Upgrading deprecated and outdated controls on the PDN for instructions.
