Base Control Type property

Specifies the "base control type" to which your user control belongs.

Values

Scope

Objects: User Control
Generators: .NET, .NET Framework, Java

Description

To create a User Control object that mimics the behavior of some of the standard controls provided by your Base Library, use this user control property in order to choose the base control type.

When you select Button as Base Type for your control, the following properties will be inherited:

• Caption (to set the button caption)
• OnClickEvent (to define the event associated with the click event)
   

How do you specify when the OnClickEvent is raised and where the Caption is used?

Use {{OnClickEvent}} in the HTML tag where you want to raise the event. And just use {{Caption}} as any other user-defined property to define a caption.

For example, in the Screen Template tab of your User Control object set the following:

<div {{OnClickEvent}} > {{Caption}} </div>

Runtime/Design time

This property applies only at design time.
