Definition tree view

The Web Designer’s graphical user interface, which you can use to edit data objects in your web application, is displayed as a definition tree view. The definition tree view is displayed as a tab next to the start page. You open the definition tree view by selecting a database object from the navigation view for example.

Almost all database objects consist of several nodes that are shown as a tree structure in the definition tree view and can be edited. If you add a new database object (web project, module, component) to your web application, this database object is created with a predefined number of nodes in the object definition. The object definition is a type of view found within the definition tree view. For more information, see Menu bar icons in the definition tree view.

The predefined nodes of a database object provide the foundation for an XML document in your web application and, as a result, cannot be deleted. You can add additional nodes in addition to the predefined nodes using the context menu. These additional nodes can be removed again. When a database object is being edited, the user is always located at a defined position in the definition tree view.

A database object generally consists of several sub-documents that can be edited in separate views in the definition tree view. You can switch between different views using the toolbar in the definition tree view. The toolbar is explained in the following table.

Table 9: Menu bar icons in the definition tree view
Icon Description

This view is mainly used to view existing database object nodes. This view is preset when you switch to the definition tree view. If the database object comes from the standard version of the Web Designer, the view is called Object definition (read-only). For more information, see Customizing object definitions.
