Adding and Deleting Display Elements

There are two ways to add new display elements:

1.

You can copy and paste existing elements on the screen.

2.

You can select an element type from the Layout Designer and click
the Add button.

There are two ways to delete existing display elements:

1.

Select the element and press the Delete button on the keyboard.

2.

Select the element, right-click and select Delete from the pop-up
menu.

You can also delete all elements on the screen by clicking the Remove
All
button on the Layout Designer.

Element Positions

The position and size of the selected element is shown in the bottom
section of the Layout Designer.

The positioning grid helps to align the elements to rows and columns. It
is possible to configure how elements are positioned and sized by
adjusting the grid size. When the grid is active, the elements "snap" to the
nearest grid position.

Fonts

When the Layout Designer is active, the pop-up menu of each element
allows the user to define the type of font to use with the element.

You can define common fonts for all label and text box elements using
the middle section of the Layout Designer.
