Source code designer

Introduction

Source code designer is used to configure schemas of the SourceCodeShema type. Use it to add the C# source code of classes to the schema and localizable strings used to localize UI text implemented by these classes.

The working area of the source code designer (Fig. 1) consists of several functional areas and contains the controls and tools necessary for creating source code schemas.

Source code editor

Use the source code editor area (1) to edit the C# source code of custom classes. Add, delete and format the source code of custom functions. Note: Source code debugging is not available in the editor.

Schema structure window

The schema structure (the root element and localizable strings of the source code) is located in the structure area (2).

Properties window

The properties window (3) displays the properties of the element selected in the schema structure (2). If you select the root element of the structure, you will see the general properties of the source code schema on the right-hand side. If you select a localizable string, you will see its properties.

Use the context menu (Fig. 2) to display all available properties of the selected element in the schema structure. Click [All] to switch to advanced mode.
