Wizard Look and Feel

Use

Every wizard has a similar look-and-feel based on the wizard framework. The following is an example of a wizard, and how it is displayed in the portal:

Every wizard has the following parts:

• Wizard Tabs: One tab is displayed for each open wizard. The title depends on the purpose of the wizard, and is set by the component that launches the wizard.

• Wizard and Pane Titles: Set by the wizard component and each pane.

• Step Counter: The pane's position within the current wizard.

• Pane Contents: The user interface defined by the AbstractWizardPane class for the current pane.

• Toolbar: A set of buttons for navigating between panes in the wizard. The toolbar contains the following buttons:

  • Cancel: Close the wizard without taking any action.

  • Back: Go back to the previous pane.

  • Next: Go to the next pane.

  • Finish: Close the wizard and take any necessary action based on the input in the wizard. You must define the actions in a non-visible pane to which you navigate after Finish is clicked.
