Notes, Comments and Warnings

You need to decide on the values of these properties prior to customizing any of your screens. If you decide to change these properties after some screens have been customized, some elements in the screens might move or become smaller or bigger and they will need to be manually repositioned and resized.

If it becomes necessary to modify any of these properties after you have started customization of screens, you will need to go through each of the customized screens and visually inspect that all elements are positioned correctly.

In TS-2, the top and left position of auto-generated fields in the main window has a padding of 2 pixels.

In case there are several auto-generated fields’ position that has been modified in TS-1, and you decide to open the project in TS-2, uncheck the addPaddingToMain property to prevent the addition of padding, thus, making your TS-1 project compatible with TS-2.

For popup window, the auto-generated fields’ position in TS-2 is the same as in TS-1. Check addPaddingToPopup property if you want to apply the 2-pixel padding to the top and left position of the field. In doing this, your project will not be compatible with TS-1 anymore.
