This is only a very poor example on how to create a JArtifex-Xml-File,
that configures a java application. If you plan to create a complex application,
use instead of the GuiDesigner an advanced editor like JEdit or WSciTE.
For informations about configuring the controls, look at
the doc/documentation.html and the doc/short-reference.html.
Instructions
If you create a new jartifex-java-application, you have to do the following steps:
1. Create a new main window
2. Add some components to this window, selecting the hierarchy and the component type and properties.
2a. Optional: Delete some components again.
3. Edit and save the generated xml file.
4. Exit the GUIDesigner.
If you have already any application, load it throuth the 'Open' button, add or delete some components
and edit&save the generated xml file.
BUT BE CAREFUL: If you click the Edit&Save Button, your existing application will be overwritten.
Please make copies of your application first!!!
Create a new window
Click the button 'New' to define your new application. Inside the window above you have to define the
properties of the application. A detailed description of the properties is here.
Add a component to the window
After you have clicked the button 'Add', you have to select the component type and the parent component, where
to lay in the new component.
Delete a component from the window
After you have clicked the button 'Delete' you can select the name of the component to delete.
Edit&Save the application
After you have clicked the button 'Edit&Save' a small editor will be opened where you can define the path and name of your
application. You have the possibility to change the generated xml string and save it to the desired file.
