How are grid layouts managed within ObjectSight?
Grid layouts for the TosDbTopGrid are managed by the Tools Manager. A Business Object may have numerous fields and properties that you want to display and allow the end-user to select and display. The ViewName and ViewUserId properties of the TosDbTopGrid drive what grid layout to use and for what user; ViewUserId of 1 means that the default application layout should be used. When the user uses the runtime grid editor, or the popup field selector or just resizes a column, a copy of the layout will be created for and maintained for that user. The user will then have their own personal layout each time they enter the application. The Tools Manager allows the developer to configure the base grid layout (UserId = 0) which defines all of the available columns within the Business Object which the end-user can select from. In addition, the developer may also define that the grid cannot be customized by the end-user.
