Creating a form by extension

To create a new form by extending an existing form:

  1. In Design Mode, launch the New Form Wizard.
  2. In the first page of the wizard, select the Extend an existing form option, and then click Next.
  3. In the next page, specify:
    • The name to assign to the new form
    • The form on which the new form is to be based (Base Form)
    • Optionally, a description of the new form

      WinStudio automatically provides a base description that you can change.

  4. Click Next.
  5. Click Finish.
    Note:  Unlike other form creation options, this type of form does not allow you to save a template.

WinStudio then creates a copy of the base form, gives it the new name, and opens it in Design Mode.
