Page History

Enables a component to stick to a specific side of form and/or to 
grow or shrink when a window is resized. 

If opposite anchors are activated then the component with grow or 
shrink with the window. For example if Top and Bottom are activated, 
then the component will grow/shrink when the window is vertically 
resized. If Left and Right are activated then the component
will grow/shrink when the window is horizontally resized. 

If opposite anchors are not activated, then the component will 
keep a constant distance from the sides of the window which
correspond to the activated anchors.

The background color of the component.

The type, color and style of border of the component.

The dataprovider of the component.

The type of display used by the field. Can be one of CALENDAR, CHECKS,
COMBOBOX, HTML_AREA, IMAGE_MEDIA, PASSWORD, RADIOS, RTF_AREA, TEXT_AREA,
TEXT_FIELD, TYPE_AHEAD, LIST_BOX, MULTISELECT_LISTBOX or SPINNER.

Flag that enables or disables merging of data inside components using tags (placeholders).
Tags (or placeholders) are words surrounded by %% on each side. There are data tags and
standard tags. Data tags consist in names of dataproviders surrounded by %%. Standard tags
are a set of predefined tags that are made available by the system.

See the "Merging data" section for more details about tags.

The default value of this flag is "false", that is merging of data is disabled by default.

Flag that tells if the content of the field can be edited or not.
The default value of this flag is "true", that is the content can be edited.

The enable state of the component, default true.

The font type of the component.

The foreground color of the component.

The Z index of this component. If two components overlap,
then the component with higher Z index is displayed above
the component with lower Z index.

The format that should be applied when displaying the data in the component.
There are different options for the different dataprovider types that are assigned to this field.
For Integer fields, there is a display and an edit format, using http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html and the max (string) length can be set.
For Text/String fields, there are options to force uppercase,lowercase or only numbers. Or a mask can be set that restrict the input the pattern chars can be found here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/text/MaskFormatter.html
A mask can have a placehoder (what is shown when there is no data) and if the data must be stored raw (without literals of the mask). A max text length can also be set to force
the max text length input, this doesn't work on mask because that max length is controlled with the mask.
For Date fields a display and edit format can be set by using a pattern from here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html, you can also say this must behave like a mask (the edit format)
A mask only works with when the edit format is exactly that mask (1 char is 1 number/char), because for example MM then only 2 numbers are allowed MMM that displays the month as a string is not supported as a mask.
Some examples are "dd-MM-yyyy", "MM-dd-yyyy", etc.
The format property is also used to set the UI Converter, this means that you can convert the value object to something else before it gets set into the field, this can also result in a type change of the data. 
So a string in scripting/db is converted to a integer in the ui, then you have to set an integer format. 
This property is applicable only for types: TEXT_FIELD, COMBOBOX, TYPE_AHEAD, CALENDAR and SPINNER.

A String representing a group ID for this component. If several
components have the same group ID then they belong to the same
group of components. Using the group itself, all components can
be disabled/enabled or made invisible/visible.
The group id should be a javascript compatible identifier to allow access of the group in scripting.

The height in pixels of the component.

Horizontal alignment of the text inside the component. Can be one of
LEFT, CENTER or RIGHT.

Note that this property does not refer to the horizontal alignment
of the component inside the form.

The margins of the component. They are specified in this order, 
separated by commas: top, left, bottom, right.

The name of the component. Through this name it can also accessed in methods.

The method that is executed when the component is clicked.

Method that is executed when the data in the component is successfully changed.

The method that is executed when the component gains focus.
NOTE: Do not call methods that will influence the focus itself.

The method that is executed when the component looses focus.

The method that is executed when the component is rendered.

The method that is executed when the component is right clicked.

The text that is displayed in field when the field doesn't have a text value.

Enables an element to resize based on its content and/or move when printing.
The component can move horizontally or vertically and can grow or shrink in
height and width, based on its content and the content of neighboring
components.

Flag that tells if the component should be printed or not when the form is printed.

By default components are printable.

Scrollbar options for the vertical and horizontal scrollbars. Each of the
vertical and horizontal scrollbars can be configured to display all the time,
to display only when needed or to never display.

Flag that tells if the content of the field should be automatically selected
when the field receives focus. The default value of this field is "false".

The name of the style class that should be applied to this component.

When defining style classes for specific component types, their names
must be prefixed according to the type of the component. For example 
in order to define a class names 'fancy' for fields, in the style
definition the class must be named 'field.fancy'. If it would be 
intended for labels, then it would be named 'label.fancy'. When specifying
the class name for a component, the prefix is dropped however. Thus the
field or the label will have its styleClass property set to 'fancy' only.

An index that specifies the position of the component in the tab sequence. The components 
are put into the tab sequence in increasing order of this property. A value of 0 means
to use the default mechanism of building the tab sequence (based on their location on the form).
A value of -2 means to remove the component from the tab sequence.

The text that is displayed in the column header associated with the component when the form
is in table view.

The text displayed when hovering over the component with a mouse cursor.

NOTE:
HTML should be used for multi-line tooltips; you can also use any
valid HTML tags to format tooltip text. For example:
<html>This includes<b>bolded text</b> and
<font color='blue'>BLUE</font> text as well.</html>

Flag that tells if the component is transparent or not.

The default value is "false", that is the components
are not transparent.

The valuelist that is used by this field when displaying data. Can be used
with fields of type CHECKS, COMBOBOX, RADIOS and TYPE_AHEAD.

The visible property of the component, default true.

The width in pixels of the component.

The x coordinate of the component on the form.

The y coordinate of the component on the form.

)

Returns the UUID of this component.

Remove the attribute of an element.
