Edit Context Links

The Edit Context Links button available in Design Mode allows you to edit a context link associated with the open page. Context links appear at the top of the page and allow users easy access to other areas of the program.

Note: You can also access the context link properties from the page properties screen. Select Page Properties and then select the ellipsis at the end of the ContextLinks field.

For example, in the default version of the program, a system role opened from System Roles in Administration includes a context link that takes users from the system role screen back to the System Roles screen.

Warning: If you add a context link to a page and a user does not have rights to view the page to which the Context link is linked, the text of the link still appears at the top of the page, but the navigation is disabled, so the user cannot access the linked page to which he does not have rights.

The following items can be added or changed from the context link properties screen:

  • Link label

  • Label Resource key

  • Link visibility

  • Value

  • Caption Resource key

  • Page information

In addition to changing the existing context link, you can add and delete links using the Edit Context Links button. After you make your changes and select Save on the properties screen, the changes appear on the page.
