Tile Display
The tile display edit type displays an object instance in a tiled view. The layout and appearance of the values is defined in a separate screen set and its detail screens. This separate screen set is used by the tile display field, with its detail screens displayed within the tile display field as a tab control.
Prior to defining a field with an edit type of tile display, the separate screen set it is to display must be defined. This screen set must be defined to display the object type desired for display in the tile display field. The separate screen set can contain a single detail screen. The fields of this detail screen display the property values of the selected object type.
When the detail screen containing the tile display field is displayed on the client, the separate screen set and its detail screen are displayed within the viewable area of the tile display field. These values are read-only.
