Figure 3: Advanced Tools - Tree Viewer
The tree viewer in the first tab provides the app designer with the overall structure/definition view so that one can easily spots any anomaly and fixes it immediately without too much of hassle and time spent.
Figure 4: Advanced Tools - Tree Viewer - Editing a Node
Clicking on the edit (pencil) icon on the right of the node allows one to configure/edit its properties right away. Upon saving of the properties, the tree viewer will refresh itself.
Figure 5: Advanced Tools - Usages
In the second tab, app designer can inspect on where the current entity is being used. From the screenshot example above, we can tell that the form is being used in another form and also being part of a workflow process. With such feature, app designer will be able to manage the form design well within the scope of its usages.
Figure 6: Advanced Tools - Table
The table tab is available in the Form Builder. With this feature, app designer can tell on which other entity is sharing/writing into the same database table the current form is currently pointing too. From the screenshot example above, we can see that the table is being accessed by multiple process tools and forms.
We can also click on the Show Table Usage In Other Apps to check if there's other apps that are writing to the same table too.
At the bottom of it, existing table columns are listed down for app designer's reference.
