List of form controls

To display the list of forms controls or find the control in a form, use a dialog box that is displayed by selecting the Form - List of Form Controls command.

The dialog box displays in a tree the list of all controls of the current form.

To find a specific control in the form simply select it in the list. When you select control in the list, it is automatically selected in the form. If the property palette is open, it displays the properties of the control.

An icon may be optionally displayed to the right of the control name, indicating the peculiarities of the control layout in the form. Overlapping controls, as well as their misalignments are indicated with icons. If the control is totally overlapped or is overlapping the other control, the rectangle with red dotted line inside is displayed.

If the form contains several pages or multipage panels, the list is shown in a tree form. If the form has only one page, this page is not shown as a separate tree branch. If there are more than one page, they are displayed as three branches. All embedded panels are always being shown with pages as branches, regardless of their number.

When the tree of controls is displayed, only branches corresponding to the current form panels are shown as open. Other pages are displayed by collapsed branches.

When you close this dialog box, the forms gives focus to the selected control and opens controls property palette (if it was closed).
