Accessing views in your application

Updated on February 7, 2022

Manage the appearance and behavior of your app by accessing and editing views. Views are reusable clusters of UI components that contain elements such as text fields, check boxes, radio buttons, or other views. By editing views, you can define what your application looks like, determine the functions of each UI area, and provide useful information to your users.

  1. In App Studio, open the view that you want to edit by using one of the following methods:
