Initially, the resizing is restricted to specific snap points. The next animation shows the resize of a data card within an Edit form control. The Alt key can also be used after a control has been selected to override snap points for moving and resizing. With the Alt key first depressed, the button control is again selected, but this time the OnSelect property is evaluated and the notification is displayed, just as if the button was selected in a running app. Adorners appear around the control and the formula bar shows the OnSelect property, ready to be edited. In the following animation, a button control is first selected for editing. This default can be overridden by holding down the Alt or Ctrl+Shift keys before initiating the selection, which treats the selection as if a user of the app had done it. When in design mode, by default, selecting an object is for editing-moving, resizing, changing properties, and otherwise configuring the object. But this poses a problem: How do we differentiate selecting a button control so that it can be resized from selecting a button control to exercise the logic in our app? There's no need to change to preview mode in order to exercise your app, making the editing and test cycles much faster. Like an Excel spreadsheet, canvas apps are live and operating even when they're being edited.

After initiating a resize or reposition of a control, holding down these keys overrides any snap points.

Before selecting a control, hide design elements so that you can interact with the controls as the app's user would.Ģ. These shortcuts require the Tree view pane to have focus. Move between commands on the selected tab and then to the next tabĬlose Preview mode, a dialog box, or a flyout pane Save the app and activate the publish dialog Save the app with the same name or for the first time Shortcuts might vary based on keyboard layout.
