The AppBuilder Editor preferences page provides options to
control the display behavior of AppBuilder-generated code in the ABL
Editor.
Note: You can make the sections of the AppBuilder-generated code
read-only in the ABL Editor. Thereby, you can ensure that the
AppBuilder-generated code is not overwritten. Editing the AppBuilder-generated
code might make the AppBuilder procedure (.w) file corrupt, and display errors
when trying to open with the ABL UI Designer.
This page includes the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Make AppBuilder generated code read-only | Select this check-box to mark the AppBuilder-generated code as
read-only in the ABL Editor. Note: By default, the
Make AppBuilder-generated code
read-only check-box is selected. |
| Read-only code background color | Display the Color dialog, which allows you to select a display color
for the read-only code blocks in the ABL Editor. The default display
color is gray. Note: This option is enabled when the
Make AppBuilder generated code
read-only check-box is selected. |
| Restore Defaults | Restore the preferences to the default values. |
| Apply | Apply the changes you made to the current workspace configuration. |
