Layouts

In the detail screens of a record by default all relevant fields of the class are listed in the order of creation.

You can add layouts to the blueprint in order to:

• change the order of the fields,
• cluster the fields in sections,
• show data from connected tables, or 
• modify other properties.

For every class in your blueprint, you can define one or more layouts. A layout consists of sections. Read more about sections.

How to use layouts? 

1. If a class has one single layout this layout is used in all cases where details of a record of this class are displayed.
   
   
2. If a class has more than one layout, you can use specific layouts for specific situations, like an insert-only situation or a specific task. We are still researching how this can be specified. Please contact CrossmarX if you want to use this option.
   
   
3. The details of a record from a connected table can be opened in a modal window with a specific layout. Steps:
   1: define this layout optimized for a modal size.
   2: set this layout in the section with the connected table (property 'Row modal layout').

Visual editor

You can try our new visual drag and drop editor to design your layouts. At the moment you can use it to create, order and align sections. In the near future you will also be able to add and position fields in the same interface as well as set a variety of properties.
