About Px Editor

When you select the Px Editor view of a component, or of a Px file, the Px Editor displays the Px file in the Workbench view pane.

The figure below shows a Px View of a component with several items selected.

The default view of the Px Editor comprises three main areas:

  • Canvas

    The largest area of the Px Editor (by default) is the canvas pane. Typically, you place widgets on the canvas and edit them using one or more of the three side bars and additional windows. If you want to change the default size of the canvas pane that appears in new Px files, then edit the canvas pane that is in /Files/PxFile.px.

  • Side bar pane

    The Px Editor side bar pane appears on the far right side of the view pane only when the Px Editor is active. Use the Px Editor toolbar menu to hide or display individual side bars or to show or hide the Px Editor side bar pane.

  • Px Editor toolbar

    The Px Editor toolbar displays above the view pane when the Px Editor is active.
