Description Manage and change the design of all views in a database in one configuration document In Catalog
No



In an ideal world we would create the perfect view when we create a new database, then use this layout as the basis for new views. However, we're not dealing with a perfect world, we're dealing with databases that still have the R4 look. Or we inherit the work of a developer with no design skills whatsoever. Or we changed our minds on how the ideal view should look like. Or the company colors change. Or...

Now, in a not so ideal world, wouldn't it be nice if we can configure the design of the perfect view for a database in a configuration document, then run an agent et voilà, every view in the database looks the same? And tomorrow, another developer arrives, makes views in it that don't look that way, so we run our agent agent and everything looks fine once again?

This is the purpose of "Viewnify": manage all design aspects of all views in an unified way by using configuration documents. There may even be created fancy templates that can be distributed in the future.


Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org. Put the word 'OpenNTF' somewhere in the subject.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Because of data privacy you cannot lookup other people's names but you have to type them in.
Enter the contributors or owners here who you want to receive notifications and questions by email.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

In addition to the owners additional OpenNTF contributors have to be listed here. Contributors don't have the same access rights as owners, e.g. they cannot create releases.

Enter a short description of the project here (up to 100 characters).

The short description shows up in the project UI and in some of the views.
In this field you should enter a more detailed description of your project.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
A Catalog Release is for projects that are production ready and that are end-user "install friendly".
