Custom Decorations

Rapide has always had the ability to place a mandatory decoration on a field that does not have a value. We have now added a new feature to allow the developer to add custom decorations to a control using action diagram methods.

Decorations can be used to flag the user's attention to a control, for example a recently changed value or a warning about some data.

Decorations can be placed to the left or right of the control and at the top, centre or bottom. Four different images are supported. Some examples are shown below.

There are action diagram methods to apply a decoration to a control (field, button, etc.) and to show or hide the decoration. Decorations are supported for desktop and browser applications.
