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.
- Open the application.
- Click Properties.
- In the Style tab.
- Navigate to the Default Components section.
- Here we can:
- Change the default component entirely to a different template, see Making Template Components.
- click Templates and drag the desired template into the default component box.
- Or we can amend the styling see Screen Styling.
- Click on the default component heading, such as Date Component, and this will open the template ready to be edited.
- 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..
