Add a Button Control to a Form

Use the Form Editor (accessed from within a Blueprint in CSM Administrator) to add a Button Control to a Form. A Button Control is capable of executing a single Action when clicked (ex: Run an Action/One-Step Action).

Good to know:

• A Button Control is highly configurable; you can add one or many to a Form, then define the Action to execute when the button is clicked, and how the button looks and behaves on the Form (ex: Text, tooltip, size, color, border style, image, alignment, anchoring, layering, visibility, and enabling/disabling).
• Text, image, and colors can be conditional (Expression-driven).
• See Form Editor Behaviors for tips on working with Controls and the Form Editor.

To add a Button Control to a Form:

1. Open a Form in the Form Editor
2. Drag-and-drop the Button Control from the Standard Control tree onto the Form.
3. Define the Action to execute when the button is clicked:
   1. Right-click the Button Control, and then select Control Properties.
   2. In the Choose Action window, click the Ellipses button to open the Action Manager, then select the Action to execute.
4. Define the text to display on the button:
   1. In the Label text box on the Form Editor toolbar, provide the text to display on the button.
   2. (Optional) Change the font, font size, font style, and font alignment if needed.
5. Define how the button looks and behaves on the Form (ex: Size, alignment, etc.).
6. Publish the Blueprint (File>Publish Blueprint) to commit the changes, or save the Blueprint (File>Save Blueprint) to continue making other changes.
