The result: Overview of common form configuration options.

All forms have some common configuration options, which are assessed in this chapter. This is an extension (additional guide) to all possible configuration options which can be found in Dynamic-App Module Catalog

Context

There is a possibility to define multiple edit or action forms for the same entity, which are shown in different situations (different contexts). Each entity should have a form with default context, forms in additional contexts are optional. Which form context should be used in a specific situation is defined in other DA components (e.g. SAMO Browse, related entity sections, planning board), which load the context content from the detail configuration.

Size

You can configure the size of the dialog window on the form initialization. By default, the window has normal size. Following table shows dialog window sizes for different screen sizes.
