9. Adding Fields to Apps

Add new fields to an app. To recap on the steps in the video:

Adding Fields to Apps

1. Open stream configuration for Contacts

2. Add the following attributes to the Stream:

   Name	Type
   BusinessUID	Integer
   BusinessName	String

3. On the ContactManager Dashboard, drag the new stream attributes onto the header of the grid view
   1. Hide the BusinessUID
4. Drag the new stream attributes onto the edit form
   1. Hide the BusinessUID
5. Re-arrange the fields on the edit forms into a logical order - don't forget, after selecting the first field, you can select additional fields to move in one go by holding Shift with the left mouse button.
6. Update the tab order of fields on the edit form:
   1. Click into the field of Name - make sure you select the inner field rather than the surrounding area
   2. Set the Tab Index of the field to 1
   3. Similarly, set the order of all the fields so you are able to tab through all attributes e.g. 2, 3, ...
   4. Go into App Mode
   5. Click on the first field in the edit form, then try tabbing through the form - this should follow the tab order you have set in your configuration
   6. If this doesn't work, go back into Design Mode and make sure that you have set the order on the field objects (the grey boxes) rather than the outer areas of the fields
7. Enter some new contacts
