Adding a custom control to the design palette
You can add custom controls to the design palettes available on the Section rule form. This makes custom controls easily accessible to developers at design time.
After you complete the Control tab to create a custom control:
- Click the HTML tab on the Control form.
- Select the Show in authoring menus check box.
- Use the Select palette option to specify whether the custom control is displayed in the Basic or Advanced palette.
- In the Control image field, enter the icon that you want to use or click the Show Image Viewer icon to select an icon from the Image Catalog.
- Controls
Use control rules to determine the appearance of a single property, such as a button or drop-down field, on a form.
- Creating a custom control
If no predefined control meets the needs of your application, you can create one.
