Customizing ADF Bindings in the Design Time Editors

You can use the Oracle ADF binding editors in JDeveloper to customize the display characteristics of any databound UI component that you create using the Data Control Palette.

Note: Modifications to a data binding may create discrepencies between the data binding and the UI component used to display the data. For example, if you edit the data binding of a table to display one less column of attribute values, you must use the Visual Editor to remove the column from the HTML.

To customize a UI component's data binding:

Use the Data Control Palette to insert the UI component into your web page or Java panel .
With the UI component displayed in the Visual Editor, choose View | Structure to open the Structure window.
Click (UI Model) in the Structure window toolbar and expand the node to display the list of bindings.
Right-click the node for the databound UI component's binding and choose Edit to view the binding editor.

OR

Double-click the node to view the binding editor.

Click the Help button in the editor for additional help.

The binding editors do not expose runtime-specific properties of the binding objects. To learn about runtime properties, see About the Properties of the ADF Bindings.
