The Duration control allows the users to specify a duration using a configurable set of units. The Properties tab of the
Properties view for the Duration control allows you to select which units are displayed for parameters of type Duration. The supported units are:
The Properties views are identical for each of them, except that the default value that is selected in the Button Type drop-down list on the
Properties tab is
primary for the
Submit Button, and it is
peripheral for the other button types. This means that a
Submit Button that is placed on a form from the palette, by default, is invoked on a mouse click or when you press the
Enter key. (If the focus is within a textarea control or similar control, the
Enter key is interpreted by the local component. It may not invoke the
Submit button.) Buttons of the other types are invoked only when they are clicked. Primary buttons are distinguished with a dark single-pixel border. A form may contain at most one Primary button.
In addition to primary or peripheral, the value of the Button Type drop-down list can be set to
associative.
An associative button is one that is associated with another control. For example, an associative button called
browse might be located next to a file upload control.
For example, when you are binding the value of a control to synchronize with a parameter that has a name CustPhone and a label
Customer Phone, and if you want to search that parameter with a keyword
Phone, type the keyword expression as
*Phone. This shows all the items that have the text
Phone in their labels.
