The painter initially enters "layout mode" in which form, form field, menu and menu item objects can be added, moved, arranged, resized, and have their attributes modified. Because the form "ftest" is new (i.e. no definition data for the form object currently exists in the Zim Data Dictionary), the painter does not find any previously associated window, and thus creates a new window with default attributes. All objects are created within the window.
To view the attributes of the window, double-click anywhere within it. The Edit Window dialog is displayed. It presents the current attributes of the window, all of which can be modified as required. For now, click on the Cancel push button to return to layout mode.
