Hi Communitiy,

layout. I want have them one below the other. Is it possible to locate them

straight below to next.

hi,

You can have Input Fields one below other in a straight line.

For that , Use Matrix Layout for RootUIElementContainter.

Place Inputfields and set property Layout Data as Matrix Head Data.

By using Matrix head data, all Input fields will come in next line one below other.

I think you will be having Label too for Each Input Field.

So I suggest to have MatrixheadData Property for Label and MatrixData for Input Field.

Set this property for any no of fields you want.

Your output will be like :

Label1 - InputField1

Label2 - InputField2

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

Hi,

Inside the try you need to use the transparent container or group to have the speicified layout.

Do you want these input fields as a part of tray.

Hi,

I would suggest you to use Matrix layout.

if you want the your display as follows :

Label1      Inputfield1
Label2      Inputfield2

Set label1 as 'MatrixHeadData' and Inputfield1 as 'MatrixData' and

on the next line the first uielement i.e. label2 again as 'MatrixHeadData' and Inputfield2 as 'MatrixData'.

Hi,

you can use Row/Matrix/Grid Layout for this requirement.

Mostly Matrix is sugessted as the UI elements are rightly aligned.

In the Grid layout you need to specify the columns to be displayed.

In the grid, mention as 2columns one for labels and other for values as per your example.

Row also does the same functionality of the Matrix but some explicit space adjusments needs to be done.
