Localized Type Name

Similar to Localized Property Names, this returns a list containing the localized name of the type of the property for each element of a list.

Additional Components

A number of helper components round out the Web Component Framework. Renderers are available to provide special formatting. The Task mechanism allows you to launch actions from your view. You can file arbitrary Icons and use them in your views. Units are available for use with metrics. Theme and Module Resources let you specify different appearances, such as the Application theme or the Monitoring theme. The Printing mechanism allows you to print reports.

Files

Developers can upload files such as image files to each module's public directory, by using the Files tab in the Definition Editor. Files can be uploaded to the root directory (under public), the images directory, or other subdirectories.

To manage files within a module:
1
Select the module, and then click the Files tab.
The list of files (with their paths) within that module is displayed. Clicking on a filename displays the filename along with the special Web Component Framework URL that refers to that file, for instance in the Background Image field of a View, the URL field of an Image Renderer.
You can copy that URL to the clipboard for later use.
2
Select the URL, then click Edit > Copy into the command line of your web browser.
To delete a file:
1
Select the file, then click the Delete toolbar icon.
2
Select OK to confirm the deletion of the file.
To add or update a file:
1
Click the Add toolbar icon. The following dialog box appears.

Type the new subdirectory name in the Add Directory field.
3
Type in the full path name on your machine to the file to be uploaded in the Add or Replace File field.
Alternatively, click the Browse button to select the file using a standard file open dialog box.

Click OK.
A confirmation message appears confirming the upload that is going to happen. When you click OK on that message, the upload occurs. Unless an error message is shown, the new file displays in the list of files, along with the Web Component Framework URL for accessing it.
