Elements
Create New Elements
To create a new element, please select an element from the "Elements" section. Use the mouse to drag the element you want to create to the desired location in the "Structure" area. A solid line is displayed as a preview of the element's position. When you release the mouse button, a wizard opens to help you configure the item.
You can find all the information about the sections in the "Design" module here.
Edit Element Properties
You can edit the properties of elements in two ways: in the "Element Settings" section or through the Properties dialog, which guides you through setting the element's most commonly used properties in the form of a wizard.
Element Settings
When you select a layout element in the layout structure, all available settings for that element are displayed in the "Element Settings" section for editing.
All other settings that can be configured here in the "Options" section vary from element to element. You'll find descriptions of the other settings under the respective items.
Properties Dialog
Double-click an element in the "Layout / Structure" pane to edit its properties in the Properties dialog box. A wizard will guide you through editing the settings for the element.
Click "Next" to open the next dialog page of the wizard.
General Settings
You can find the settings listed below in both the "Element Settings" section and the Properties dialog box.
General
ID / Class
In the general section of the options, you'll find the "ID" or "class" for each element, which is used to identify the element in CSS. If the ID can be edited here, be sure to use an ID that is unique within the layout. If you use the same ID twice, your changes will be discarded as soon as you edit another element.
Title
Here you can give your element a title, which will be used to identify it throughout the "Design" module.
Heading / Heading Level
You can assign a heading level and enter a heading. The heading level has no effect on the hierarchy in the layout, but—like the heading itself—it is written in the HTML below the container and can therefore be used by screen readers and search engines.
Role
If you want to create accessible pages or simply bring more transparency to your layout structure, you can assign a role to the element here.
Multilingualism
Opens a dialog box where the respective property (e.g., the title) can be edited in the portal languages.
