• Via the File menu (File->New->Form?New?Form)
• By right-clicking on a solution in the solution explorer and selecting Create New Form.
• By pressing the "New Wizard" button on the Servoy Developer Toolbar.

...

• Form name. If left unfilled, Servoy will automatically choose a name when you select a datasource.
• Datasource. Clicking on the button next to the datasource entry field will reveal a list of available datasources.
• Extends. An existing form can be used as a basis for extending into a new form can extend an existing form. The new form inherits the user interface and business logic that the existing form contains. Note that both forms need to come from the same datasource.
• Style. Servoy comes with many CSS style themes, or you can create your own (see Programing Guide for details).
• Template. If desired, a previously created Form Template can be loaded onto the form.
• Solution. The solution is automatically preloaded (the active solution that the form is created on) Note: In cases where a solution contains modules, the user could select one of the modules to create a new form in.

...

• Using the keystroke CTRL-S.
• Clicking on File-->Save?Save.

To revert unwanted changes, use the context menu on the form and select Revert Form (at the top of the list).

The Properties view loads by default when you open Servoy. If it has been minimized, it can be re-loaded by clicking on the Window menu->Show View->Properties?Show View?Properties.
