Change a Default Component

Default components are the components used to create specific types of object automatically. For example the template to use when we drag an attribute onto a screen to create a form field.

  1. Open the application.
  2. Click Properties.
  3. In the Style tab.
  4. Navigate to the Default Components section.
  5. Here we can:
    1. Change the default component entirely to a different template, see Making Template Components.
      1. click 
        Insert excerpt
        _template
        _template
        nopaneltrue
         and drag the desired template into the default component box.
    2. Or we can amend the styling of the existing component, see Screen Styling.
      1. Click on the default component heading, such as Date Component, and this will open the template ready to be edited.
      2. Note editing shared styles here will update all existing instance of this template, adding styles directly to the component will only impact items created after the style is added..
