Adding App Studio Components

Modified on Thu, 30 Oct at 10:25 AM

The App Studio provides a variety of Components, each designed for a specific task, that you can drag and drop onto your interface. By reusing familiar, purpose-built Components, you can reduce time you spend in development and testing processes.


Components are organized by function in the App Studio, making it simple to locate the right one for your specific tasks.


To add a Component to your interface:

  1. Go to the App Studio Explorer and Components > Components.
  2. Locate the required component and drag and drop it onto the Canvas.
