Form input components allow you to design forms and enter data in them.
Solution Builder is based on HTML5 components. To learn more about the behavior of each component type, consult a HTML5 reference like this one. Solution Builder includes the following form input components:
For a detailed reference of properties that affect input components, see Common Properties and Input Component Properties.
To add a form input component, select Insert > Form and the component Type.
Solution Builder allows you to style form input components using properties. However, some visual aspects of certain input components depend on the user's browser and operating system (OS). For example, the appearance of the drop-down menu in the list input component, and that of the slider and track in the range input component, depend in part on your browser and OS. It's possible to create custom widgets that are less dependent on these factors.
To use form input to change data metrics, use a Data action.To create a text input component that commits its contents to the olldata, take the fowing actions:Insert the input component be selecting Insert > Form > Text Input.
When you press Enter at runtime, the data action executes using the contents of the component as the value.
To save your input as the component's value, you can use a Local Storage dataflow block.
inputValue
.When you press Enter at runtime, Solution Builder saves the value as the value of the Input component.
These properties affect Input components. For a guide to Input components, see Form Input > Designing Input Components.
Note: Inputs are also affected by Common Properties.
