Using Forms

Introduction

Forms are used when some kind of input is required from the user. In Flux, Form objects must be with a text flow, so to create a form object, first you must place the caret where you want the form object to be, and from the 'New Object' toolbar button, you can choose the type of form object to create.

When you create a form object for the first time, Flux will offer to create the containing form for you, if you are sure you want to create a form, press 'Create'.

Once you have created the form object you can alter it's attributes by opening the appropriate palette by choosing 'Form Object Attributes' from the Window menu.




To alter the attributes of the form itself, choose 'Form Setup' from the gear menu on the parent Element Attributes palette after selecting the parent Element.
