Properties

caption : CaptionType

String indentifier for caption display in the UI.

Valid values based on“string”.
80 (maxLength)	Caption can be a maximum of 80 characters long.

case : string

A space separated list of metaclass names, primitive values or 'null' used to drive polymorphic display.

The case part of a polymorphic form switch. This is conceptually similar to a JAVA switch, but for UI. The value property of a parent GroupLayout contains the expression that the cases are evaluated against. If this resolves to a non-primitive, the cases are compared against the non-primitive's class type. Note: The class, all subclasses, and the 'null' case should be handled. If it resolves to a primitive, the cases are compared directly with the value. Note: All possible values and the 'null' case should be handled. That being said Enumerated values and booleans are most appropriate. All possible values must be covered by the cases - there is no 'else' case. Within the GroupLayout the cases are checked from left to right. The first Layout to match will be the one to display.

Example

Non-primitive case: The parent Grouplayout value property is set to EntityList.  This is
a View Path to the the EntityList form.  There are three child Layouts with cases of
1. null 2. Person UserPerson 3. Company.  The currently selected instance in the model of
the EntityList form will determine which Layout will display.  If an instance of Company
is selected in the EntityList then Layout 3 displays.
Primitive case: The parent GroupLayout value property is set to EntityList isPerson.
This is a View Path to the EntityList form and an Association Path to the isPerson attribute.
There again are three child Layouts with cases of 1. null 2. #t 3. #f.  As
we move through the EntityList the Layouts will dynamically display based on the values in case.
