Example:

Let’s build and execute the “GridViewControlDef” example.  

  • Create a new Form definition called “GridViewControlDef.”
  • Drag a “BootstrapGrid, GridViewControl, and Submit” control to the canvas and arrange them as shown below.
  • Double-click the widget to configure the inputs. Click the “Add Column” button to add required columns and position them using the UI control. Select the checkbox to hide this grid during runtime. Select the checkbox to configure the first row of the grid as a header.

 

  • Drag and drop labels and other controls into the grid view's columns to create an interface where users can input data.

 

  • Save the Form definition. Select Actions - Create Form Instance menu option. Generate a new Form instance and select the check box to edit this Form instance.

 

  • The Form with the grid is rendered on the new page. Click the plus sign (+) to add new rows. Provide the inputs to the grid view controls. Click the Submit button to save information to the Form instance. 

 

  • Click on the delete sign to remove rows. Click on “Submit” to complete the Form.
