Screen Design Palette Options

Use the items on the palette to design the screen for the mobile workflow application.

Option Description
Menu item Use to provide additional options for the top-level menu on the screen.
Checkbox Displays a true/false (or yes/no) option on the screen.
Editbox Select the logical type for the edit box, then enter text and assign values to strings, dates, decimals, integers, and so on.
Choice Display a collection of items on the screen as a drop-down list from which the user can choose.
Slider Represent numeric values within a range.
Signature Add a signature box to the screen. The value is a list of points that, combined, make up the signature that gets or is drawn to the control, for example, -1x-1,5x7,5x8,-1x-1, where -1x-1 is interpreted as an interruption of a line drawn to the screen.
HtmlView
Allows text with HTML markup to display on the screen. For example, this code:
<H2>Travel Request App 1.0</H2> 
This application enables vacation requests to be 
sent for approval.<br>Contact Dan at extension 1234 
for technical support.
displays like this on the device:


mw_htmlview_example

Note: The HtmlView control fills the entire screen of a workflow form, so no other controls can be placed on a screen that hosts an HtmlView control.
ListView Displays lines that can be clicked on to show further details of the selected line. This facilitates the navigation for a one-to-many mobile business object relationship. For example, the listview could contain the items of a sales order. When a line in the sales order is clicked on, a details screen for that sales order appears.
Note: The ListView control fills the entire screen of a workflow form, so no other controls can be placed on a screen that hosts a ListView control.
