Setting Visibility of Pane and Control Borders

The controls and panes on a form, including nested panes, are sometimes clearer and easier to distinguish from one another when viewed with borders around them. The borders do not appear at runtime (or in the GWT Preview mode), but only in Design mode.

It is a matter of personal preference whether to display the borders in Design mode. To switch between showing and hiding borders around controls and panes, click the Toggle Pane and Control Borders button at the far right of the TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition Forms toolbar.

Procedure

  1. Click Window > Preferences to open the Preferences dialog.
  2. Click Form Designer in the left navigation pane.
  3. Select or clear the Show pane and control borders check box as desired, and click OK.

    Borders are displayed or hidden as specified.
