# Array

Accessible Using

1. First open the attributes window of a dialog or dialog element by double-clicking on it or by pressing ENTER or by selecting 'Attributes...' from the dialog or dialog element's context menu.

2. Then select the "Array..." push button.

## Purpose

Define an array of dialog elements of the same type. This is especially useful for quickly creating a layout for end user input. An array of dialog elements will be treated as an entity by the dialog editor, that is, you can edit the entire array (move, resize, etc.). For example, you can create a column of evenly spaced input field controls plus a column of corresponding text constant controls.
