Quick Start - Create Your Own App

You can easily create your own app with ViziApps. Just follow these steps:

• Click on the tool tip button for Create A New App.

• In the dialog box, fill in the Application Name.
• Select the Designed For device. This presents a specific canvas in the Studio but you can still build your app for multiple platforms.
• Select Hybrid as the App Type. See ViziApps App Types for details.
• Application Description is optional.
• The First Page Name is required, but can be changed later. It is a page identifier that must be made from letters, numbers, or the underscore character. It cannot have spaces or other punctuation.
• Click Save and your new app with an empty design will be created for you.

• Click on Select App Property and then select App Background Image to choose a background that is appropriate for your new app.
• Note that the app will start with the first page showing, that you named when you created this app.

• Click on the Label field button to add a text label to the first page.
• Enter the Label ID. These field IDs are used throughout ViziApps to uniquely identify each field. A field ID can only contain letters, numbers, or the underscore character. No spaces are allowed.
• Enter the Label Text. This is the text that is actually displayed to the user.
• You may change the text properties such as font style, color, and size.
• Click Insert Label.

• Click on the Text Field field button to add a text entry field to this page.
• Enter a new Text Field ID. Remember that each field ID must be unique.
• You may enter a Default Value, which is what the user will see when this field is first shown, but you can also leave this blank.
• Click Update Text Field.
• You will now see the new text field on your page, but it may be covering the prompt label. Click and drag this field to a better place; you can also change its size by dragging the corner.

• Click on the Button field button to add a button to this page.
• Enter a new Button ID.
• Enter the text that you want to appear on the button's face in the Button Label.
• You may change the text style and background color.
• Under When a user taps the button:, change the Select action to Popup web page.
• Under Name of the field containing the web page URL:, enter the exact field ID for the text entry field.
• Click Update Button.

• To test this app on your phone or tablet, click on Select App For Test.
