Component Input Map Tab

If the defined part's Type is set to Component, the Input Map tab provides a list of mappings for the input properties associated with the component upon which this form template part is based. These input properties list the details that may be modified for the component selected. For example, some properties that may be modified on a text field include the label, or the type and size of the font.

This tab automatically inherits a list of all input properties associated with the form component selected on the General tab and is therefore only available when the Type field on the General tab is set to Component. Fields may be updated directly in the grid.
