2 Extending Design Properties Applied in Studio
Properties in the Design section of Studio allow users to change the position and styling of widgets on a page. Atlas UI contains a design properties file that can be extended with your own custom design properties.
You can find the design properties inside the settings.json or settings-native.json files of your Mendix project.
The example below shows the design properties of a "Button"
.
"name"
— the name of the design property"type"
— the type of the design property (for example,Dropdown
orToggle
)"description"
— a brief explanation of the design property"options"
— the array of options that shows the name and CSS class specified in the Sass files for Atlas UI
These design properties are used in the Design section of Studio.
When you use a new class as a design property, make sure that this class exists.
