Overview

A layout defines the size of the application window and the basic arrangement of display components in the runtime application. Be sure to plan how you want to use displays. For example, consider whether you want a menu bar, toolbar, or other elements to always display at the top of your application window. 

You may need only one layout to handle the information in the application.

The last display listed in the Layout tab is the one that is replaced when you change the display. For example, new projects include a default layout called Startup. The MainPage display that is listed last is the default area that changes when you tell the application to open a display.
