Editing form groups with the EGL form editor

The EGL form editor lets you edit a formGroup part graphically. The form editor works with formGroup parts, their form parts, and the fields in those form parts in much the same way as other graphical editors work with files like Web pages and Web diagrams. At any time, you can click the Source tab at the bottom of the editor and see the EGL source code that the editor is generating. The form editor has the following features:
