DSP® Application Development

Add a Label

Label is a Control Type that displays a label to distinguish between Vertical View sections.

NOTE: The label must be added to the SQL View with NULL in the Column column and the label title in the Alias Column before the label can be created.

NOTE: DSP® adds spaces to words based on the placement of capital letters in field names. Therefore, all multiple-word field names should be concatenated with capital letters that serve as the demarcation point between the words. The column then displays with the appropriate spaces on the page.

To add a label:

  1. Access the Page Columns page.

  2. Click Add.

    View the field descriptions for the Page Columns page

  3. Enter name of the label in the COLUMN field.
  4. Select Vertical in the VIEW TYPE field.
  5. Select Label from the CONTROL List Box.
  6. Click Save.

NOTE: On the Vertical View, a user can set the Collapse option. When enabled, a plus or minus sign displays next to the label, and the user can click it to expand or collapse the fields beneath the label.
