By extending a summary view you automatically re-use the portlet containers (the rounded boxes that can be moved around) where you can display your content but our current SDK doesn't include any particular component, you need to use the standard Flex libraries or 3rd party widgets.

I've been looking for this straight answer for days, thanks!

Does the 5.5 SDK include any such components? Can you point me at more information about it, and a place to download it from?

Thanks,

Eitan

Eitan,

You've come to the right forum for SDK answers 🙂

SDK 5.5 doesn't include Flex components either.  The purpose of our SDK is to provide the best extensibility to let plugins integrate with the Web Client but this is not a UI components framework.  Our internal custom components are not in a state where we can share them publicly because upward compatibility would not be guaranteed.

Feel free to use the rich set of standard Flex framework components or build your own custom components to use inside your views.
