Editing Palettes
You can create new palettes and edit existing ones.
To create a palette and add components:
- Right-click the repository branch → Application → Palette and select Add New.
- PhixFlow opens a properties tab for the palette. Name the palette and save it.
- In the Layouts section, click the Error rendering macro 'excerpt-include' : No link could be created for '_layout_list'.button to see all the layout templates in the repository.
- Drag layouts into the palette properties.
- Optionally, you can use the same layout template for specific types of component, such as a date field, card or action. Drag the layout template from the repository list into the corresponding field in the Default Component section.
To remove items from a palette right-click on the item in the palette and click Delete. This removes the layout from the palette, but does not remove it from the repository.
