Property Details
anchors

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.

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

var ballImage = solutionModel.newMedia('ball.jpg', ballBytes);
var label = form.newLabel('', 10, 10, 100, 100);
label.imageMedia = ballImage;
labelFor
Some components can be set to be labels of other components. This is useful in
two situations. In table view mode it is used for constructing the header of the
table. In record view mode, by setting mnemonics on the label, keyboard shortcuts
can be used to set the focus to fields.
Returns
String
Sample
var labelOne = form.newLabel('Label One', 10, 10, 100, 20);
var fieldOne = form.newField('parent_table_id', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 120, 10, 100, 20);

separated by commas: top, right, bottom, left.
Returns
String
Sample
var label = form.newLabel('Label', 10, 10, 150, 150);
label.background = 'yellow';
label.margin = '10,20,30,40';
mediaOptions

Options to scale the image Media object that is displayed inside the component.
Can be set to one or a combination of CROP, REDUCE, ENLARGE and KEEPASPECT.

REDUCE will scale down the image if the component is smaller than the image.
REDUCE combined with KEEPASPECT will reduce the image, but keep its aspect ratio.
This is useful when the component has other proportions than the image.

ENLARGE will scale up the image if the component is larger than the image.
ENLARGE combined with KEEPASPECT will scale up the image while keeping its aspect ratio.

CROP will leave the image at its original size. If the component is smaller than
the image this will result in only a part of the image showing up.

Returns
Number

// Load two images, a big one and a small one.
var bigBytes = plugins.file.readFile('d:/big.jpg');
var bigImage = solutionModel.newMedia('big.jpg', bigBytes);
var smallBytes = plugins.file.readFile('d:/small.jpg');
var smallImage = solutionModel.newMedia('small.jpg', smallBytes);
// Put the big image in several small labels, with different media options.
var smallLabelWithBigImageReduceKeepAspect = form.newLabel('', 10, 10, 50, 50);
smallLabelWithBigImageReduceKeepAspect.imageMedia = bigImage;
smallLabelWithBigImageReduceKeepAspect.background = 'yellow';

// Put the small image in several big labels, with different media options.
var bigLabelWithSmallImageEnlargeKeepAspect = form.newLabel('', 10, 70, 200, 100);
bigLabelWithSmallImageEnlargeKeepAspect.imageMedia = smallImage;
bigLabelWithSmallImageEnlargeKeepAspect.background = 'yellow';
bigLabelWithSmallImageEnlargeKeepAspect.mediaOptions = SM_MEDIAOPTION.ENLARGE | SM_MEDIAOPTION.KEEPASPECT;

the onClick event of the component. But if the "labelFor" property is set for the
component, then the keyboard shortcut will move the focus to the component whose
label this component is.

btn.showFocus = false;
styleClass

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.

Returns
String
Sample
var form = solutionModel.newForm('printForm', 'example_data', 'parent_table', 'null', false, 400, 300);

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.
Returns
Number
Sample
// Create three fields. Based on how they are placed, by default they will come one
// after another in the tab sequence.
var fieldOne = form.newField('parent_table_id', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 10, 100, 20);
var fieldTwo = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 40, 100, 20);

Returns
String
Sample
// In general the text is specified when creating the component.

// But it can be changed later if needed.
label.text = 'Changed text';
toolTipText

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

NOTE:

var imageBytes = plugins.file.readFile('d:/ball.jpg');
var media = solutionModel.newMedia('ball.jpg', imageBytes);
// Put on the form a label with the image.
var image = form.newLabel('', 10, 10, 100, 100);
image.imageMedia = media;
// Put two fields over the image. The second one will be transparent and the
// image will shine through.
var nonTransparentField = form.newField('parent_table_text', JSField.TEXT_FIELD, 10, 20, 100, 20);
