Overview

Tabs refer to a navigation element that allows users to switch between different views or sections within the same layout. Each tab represents a different section or category, and clicking on a tab displays the content associated with that tab while hiding the content of other tabs.

Tabs are often used to organize content into manageable chunks, making it easier for users to navigate and find information without having to load new pages or screens.

Attributes

Attributes are the options available for each component, allowing you to customize its appearance and functionality. They help you tailor the look and behavior of your components to fit your needs.

Basic

Attribute Name	Description
Default Tab	If you have multiple tabs, select the number to set the default tab.
Overflow Limit	This feature lets you control the number of tab. Setting the limit to 1 will show only one tab, with other appearing in a dropdown menu.

UI Attribute

Attribute Name	Description
Component Size	This allows users to modify the size of a section within the layout according to the grid size. This feature allows for flexible customization, enabling users to resize components to fit their specific needs within the defined grid structure. Note: Currently, we support Component Size 1 for Section. All other sizes will throw an error alert displaying Max allowed value is 1.
Padding Location	"Padding Location" typically refers to the configuration of spacing around elements
Padding Size	"Padding Size" refers to the amount of space added inside an element, between the element's content and its border or edge.
Margin Location	"Margin Location" refers to the spacing around the outside edge of an element
Margin Size	"Margin Size" refers to the amount of space around the outside edges of an element,
Style	It is used to apply custom styles to section, such as color, font, size, and more. It allows you to define the appearance of a component by specifying CSS properties directly within the attribute.
Classes	It is used to apply SLDS classes to section, if needed.
Layout Type	It is used to set the layout type in two ways as: Grid: The Grid Layout Type provides a grid-based layout system consisting of rows and columns. This layout type simplifies the process of designing and structuring a layout, allowing for precise placement and alignment of components within the grid. Flow: The Flow Layout Type is used for positioning and formatting components within a layout. This layout type allows components to be positioned in relation to each other. Note: By default, this attribute is set to a value of Grid Layout Type.
Visibility Type	It determines whether a component is visible on the layout. It offers the following visibility types: Always: The component will always be visible. Conditional: The component's visibility is determined based on specific criteria, which can make it either visible or hidden as needed. You can explore more about Visibility Type attribute here.
Component Label	It simply shows the name of the component.

Add Condition & Group Condition

Condition	Description
Add Condition	The Add Condition feature allows users to define multiple criteria that must be met for a validation rule to trigger. This feature is used to create complex logic by combining different conditions that Salesforce evaluates before allowing a record to be saved.
Add Group Condition	The Add Group Condition feature allows users to group multiple conditions together, creating complex logic that involves different sets of criteria. This feature is particularly useful when combining conditions that should be evaluated as a unit (logical OR within a group) or when nesting conditions for more advanced logic.

Filter Operator:

Note: Before using the filter criteria, it's important to understand which filter operators are supported for each field type

Filters Attributes:

Filter Operators

Operator	Supported Field Types	Description
Equal	Number, Currency, Date, Text, Boolean, Picklist	The equal operator is used to compare two values or expressions. It is used to compare numbers, strings, Boolean values, variables, objects, etc. The result is TRUE if the expressions are equal otherwise it’s FALSE
Contains	Text, Picklist	The contains operator returns TRUE if the value on the left contains the value on the right, and otherwise FALSE
Starts With	Text, Picklist	It returns TRUE if a string or number starts with the specified character otherwise it returns FALSE.
Ends With	Text, Picklist	It returns TRUE if a string or number ends with the specified character otherwise it returns FALSE
In	Text, Picklist	IN operator allows you to easily test if the expression matches any value in the list of values. Determines whether the value of an expression is equal to any of several values in a specified list.

Merge Text

Merge text is a key feature of the noKodr application, allowing users to display field values on the UI. Depending on the data type, users can perform mathematical operations on these fields.

For example, if you want to display a calculated total price based on the quantity and unit price entered by the user on a sales order form, and you wish to dynamically showcase this on the UI without saving the record in the database, you can achieve this using the UI fields in noKodr.

After selecting merge text you can you can see several options such as:

Attribute	Description
Source Type	In this option, you can select various sources from which you want to display values.
Value	The available options will change depending on the selected source type. For example, if you choose "Static" as the source, you can provide a fixed static value.
Merge Field Expression	The selected field from the source will be displayed in a merge format. For instance, the first name field from the contact model will appear as: {model:contact.FirstName}.
Message Body	In this option, You can add multiple values to form your final UI merge text. For example, merge fields include {model:contact.FirstName},{model:contact.LastName} will eventually display the contact's first name and last name next to each other.

Available Sources

After clicking on the Gear Icon, you can select various sources to include fields or values, such as variables, other models, static values, etc.

Source Type	Description

Source Type	Description
Static	Use this option to provide a fixed static value.
Field	Select the field from the chosen object in the model whose value you want to include.
Model	Choose the field from other models whose value you want to include.
Variable	Select from the variables created in the layout whose value you want to use.
Cookie Key	Choose the available cookie key whose value you want to include from your browser.
Local Storage Key	Select the available Local Storage Key whose value you want to include from your browser.
User	You can also select fields from the current logged-in user in your organization to include in the merge. Note: The User source refers to the currently logged-in user in your organization. This means that if you include the First Name field from the user, each time a different user logs in, they will see their own First Name displayed.

Note: After clicking inside the tab section on the layout, you will see the tab configuration

Events:

Events are essentially the automation of invoking the component's actions.
Here, only onload event actions are available for this components.

In the image below, you can select the created workflows.

Note: "You need to create a workflow for selecting from this list.

For more information about Workflow check this out.

Reference: Workflow

onload Events:

We have an onload event that runs when the component is loaded

For example, when a form is loaded, you can choose fields to be prepopulated by mapping field values using input mapping at the time the form component is loaded.

Input Mapping

Input Mapping: "Whenever an event is triggered and you want to pass data to destinations such as models, variables, or components, you can use input mapping to achieve that.
