Selecting and working with objects on a layout

An object is a discrete element: a field, a text block, a graphic object (such as an oval or imported picture), a button, button bar, a portal (for displaying rows of related records), a panel control (for grouping objects together in tab panels or slide panels), a popover button and a popover (for grouping fields and other objects), a chart, or a web viewer. You can select, move, resize, delete, copy, format, name, and change an object once you have created it.
