Patchwork

Overview

You can build logic by setting navigation, data flow and control flow in the application. User use this module to combine different patches of the application and build specific logic. Different patches can be views, data sets and files.

This feature used to connect different patches and UI designs to build specific logic.

Purpose of this module

Build application logic
Connect Dataset with Views
Define screen navigation
Set data navigation (by mapping of in and out parameters between screens)
Define Menu items.
Define Context menu

This module builds logic and navigation for application that we are targeting. There are more modules required to build application like App Datasets and Views. Patchwork connects all the patches created in these modules and build Application logic.

For example, we have a Login screen design in view; on press of Login button, it gives credentials to next screen in form of output parameters. Using Patchwork, we can specify event on Logic screen and pass/map values received as output parameter to validation screen.

Available Patches

Views

Views created by user will display under this section.

List Views

Views can be created to List type. These views can be design to hold list of items. User created List types of views will be listed under this section.

Dataset Views

When user adds Dataset in App Datasets,it will add a default bank view associated with that dataset. We can see these kind of datasets related views here. Dataset view patches comes with predefined events.

Predefined action events:

onItemSelect
OnItemDelete
onItemUpdate
onItemCreate

On these events user can connect another view.
