Working With controls form designer

You can view and modify control property values in the control forms.

• To move a control:
  1. Click a control and drag it.
  2. Drop the control on any location that is highlighted when the cursor hovers over it.
     Note: Existing controls are moved automatically if required.
• To delete a control:

  The Web Form Designer allows you to hide controls but do not delete them. Use Application Architect if you must delete a control.

• To hide a control:
  1. Select the control, and select the Advanced tab.
  2. Clear the Visible property field value in the Appearance group.
     Note: To reuse the space occupied by the hidden control, move the control to another location such as the bottom of the page. Use Application Architect if you must delete a control.

     Add a Control/Data field. See Adding a data field to a form (Adding a control)

• To change the size of a control:
