The last four tab pages of the View Editor contain the parts of the view controller that can be maintained: the context, attributes, actions and methods.

Context

The context of a view differs from the contexts of other controllers by its restricted visibility. Nodes and attributes that you create within a view context can only be used there, whereas the context elements of other controllers can be used for the cross-view data transport through binding to several other contexts. Data can even be transported across components using the interface controller.

Information about creating and maintaining context nodes and attributes: Controller: Context.

Attributes

You can create attributes for the context of a view: Controller: Attribute.

Actions

Actions are special types of events. You can find more information about creating and maintaining actions and other events under Controller: Events.

Methods

In addition to event handlers for actions and inbound plugs as well as events of other controllers, you can create simple methods for a view controller.

As for all other controllers, you can find the documentation for the tools in Controller: Methods.
