Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Basic Development


Creating containers using the AppBuilder

When you select the AppBuilder option File New, the window shown in Figure 8–4 is invoked.

Figure 8–4: New object window

If the Independent Window, Dynamic Menu Controller or Dependent Window is selected, the Container Builder is launched in add mode with the standard object design widget running in the background, as shown in Figure 8–5.

Figure 8–5: Object design widget

If the Container Builder is closed or hidden, double-clicking on any of the open area on the widget launches the Container Builder.

The toolbar is different in that New, Open, and Delete functionality has been removed. This is because the Container Builder has been launched from the AppBuilder to create one new container, as shown in Figure 8–6. The object type combo box has also been disabled because it was selected through the AppBuilder’s New dialog box. The Product Module combo box also defaults to the one selected.
