Controls
Control Arrays
Many control types now support array types: a group of related controls. Control arrays share many of the same properties like id
, title
, and enable
, etc. However their default
and subtitles
become arrays.
To access an array value use the the property’s template, then adding an array index such as %id=myValue[2]
. See the Property Value template documentation for more info.
Subtitles
Most controls can now display a subtitle. Subtitles provide more contextual info and are especially helpful in array controls so that each control can be labeled. Omitting the label makes the control vertically more compact.
Note: Four-across control arrays have very limited space for subtitles.
