Visual Mobile Designer Component Palette
See Also
The Visual Mobile Designer (VMD) Component Palette contains groupings of all valid MIDP LCDUI components
that can be added using the VMD.
The Component Palette is available when you are using the VMD to design the
flow and user interface for your Mobile application. The Component Palette is
located by default in the upper right corner of the Visual Mobile Designer.
To add a component
to your application, select it and drag it into the Flow Editor or Screen
Designer. You can then edit the properties of the component within the Flow
Designer or Screen Designer, or in the properties window.
You can customize the organization of the Component Palette or add custom components
to the palette by right-clicking the Component Palette and choosing Palette
Manager. This opens the Component
Palette Manager.
By default, the Component Palette organizes components into the following
categories:
- Displayables. Components that provide the basic visual
display, such as alerts, forms, lists, and text boxes.
- Commands. Components for each command type defined
by
javax.microedition.lcdui.Command
.
- Elements. Lists elements that
can be added to the
List
and ChoiceGroup
items.
- Items. Components that perform a function within
an item, such as a date field, or change the appearance of an item,
such as placeholder components for images and text fields.
- Flow. Components that allow you to connect separate VMD projects into an integrated application.
- Resources. Resources that can be used by other objects including fonts, images, and a ticker.
- SVG Components. Components that allow you to integrate SVG files into your project using features like Wait Screen and Menu.
- Custom. Lists custom components you create for use in the Visual Mobile Designer.
