NEW CONTROL #1:LAYOUT CONTROL: A CONTROLBECOMES INVISIBLE? THE OTHERCONTROLS MOVE

In a window, a developer may decide to make an unusedcontrol invisible by programming.This leaves a “hole” in the interface.To improve the window layout, the controls found below mustbe moved.

Before version 23, the controls had to be repositioned by pro-gramming.With version 23 and the new Layout control, this repositioningis automatically performed at run time: the controls foundbelow the invisible control move up.The Layout control (also called Stack panel) is a “container”control: it, in itself, contains other controls.Depending on the parameters of the Layout control, thecontrols found in the Layout control can move vertically or hori-zontally.The Layout control is very useful for the anchors because an-chors do not fill the holes!The Layout control also automatically manages shifting controlstoward the bottom when a control is enlarged (see new featurebelow).

GALLERY IN COLUMNS

A gallery in columns (like in the example on the left page) pro-poses the same width for each image in the same columnThe gallery in columns automatically adapts the height of eachcell to respect the image proportions.Three options are proposed when the browser is enlarged:• the number of columns remains fixed, the size of images re-mains fixed• the number of columns remains fixed but the size of images is

increased• the size of images remains fixed but the number of columns is

increased.Benefit provided by this version 23 new feature:Gallery in columns


THE GALLERY IS RESPONSIVE

When a gallery is created in a responsive page, the gallery is res-ponsive!For example, the size of cells and the number of columns canbe defined for each blade.In mobile blade, the display in rollover will be replaced by a per-manent display (because the rollover does not exist on aphone!) Benefit provided by this version 23 new feature:The Gallery control does a good job!

SERVER VARIABLE UPDATED INCASE OF BROWSERMODIFICATION

Global variables can be declared in server code.These global variables can only be accessed in read-only in theBrowser code. This is the default mode.For security reasons, you can forbid the reading (and thereforethe transfer of this variable browser side) by declaring the glo-bal variable with the server only attribute.This is essential for a Server variable that would contain aconnection password for example.// The private key must not be transmitted to the browsergsPrivateKey is string <server only> =“1234657841549573541”

In version 23, the server variables shared with the browser codecan also be in write mode.When the variable is modified on the browser, the variable willbe automatically updated on the server.You will notice that the variable will be synchronized on the ser-ver during the next HTTP request.The new <browser synchronized> attribute is being introduced.No need to create hidden controls to return values to the ser-ver!// The list of customers must be synchronized bet-ween the server and the browser
