After creating an auto-generated form using the
Form
> Open
context menu action or the user task General Properties tab
Form... radio button and manually customizing it, there can be a situation where you would like to start over again with a default form.
Procedure
Go to the context menu of the user task and click
Form > Use Default. This option is enabled only if the
Form... radio button is selected on the user task General Properties tab.
Note: You can also select the
Use Default Form radio button in the user task General properties tab as shown below.
The
Confirm Delete dialog appears.
Choose the Delete option if you need to delete the existing customized form. The customized form in the Forms folder in the Project Explorer is deleted.
Choose the
Keep option if you need to retain the customized form. You would select this option if the Form were still to be used by other user tasks.
After providing the delete options, you need to generate the new form. Go to the context menu of the user task and click
Form
> Open. You can also click the
Form... radio button in the user task General Properties tab.
If you previously specified the
Delete option on the
Confirm Delete dialog, a default auto-generated form is created.
If you previously specified the
Keep option on the
Confirm Delete dialog, the Overwrite Form dialog appears. Choose the
Overwrite option if you need to overwrite the existing customized form with a default form, or choose the
Reuse option to continue using the existing customized form.
The system remembers your responses; the next occasion on which it presents either of these dialogs your previous choice becomes the 'default action' (the one executed if you press the Enter key). If you select the
Do not ask this question again check-box, the dialog will not be displayed on subsequent occasions and the system will automatically take the action that you choose on this occasion. These settings may be changed using
Window > Preferences > Form Designer > Synchronization.
