  • Sub-dialogs (shown as additional tabs in the dialog)

The above picture shows the properties dialogue window for the HTML Dialog Layout template, where you can view and edit the diagram’s properties in QualiWare Lifecycle Manager.

The access tab is used to specify which dialog description to use for any situation.

  • Roles with Read-Write: Role is used in the calculations of which HTMLDialogLayout is used when user triggers an action requiring a webform.
  • Customizations: Customization is used in the calculations of which HTMLDialogLayout is used when user triggers an action requiring a webform.

It is possible to set up multiple customization if needed.

From QualiWare 10.5 it is possible to have two versions of a form to edit objects from the web, a Simple and an Advanced form. If you specify the simple form, the advanced form will automatically be generated. The “advanced” form that has the full metamodel for our object (all tabs and all attributes). (see more details in the release note for QualiWare 10.5).

HTML Explorer Layout

Purpose: The purpose of the HTML Explorer Layout is to contain information of the HTML explorer and its behavior. A new template for this purpose has been created.
