Frame Templates
A frame template is a frame that you use as a model for creating similar frames. Frame templates contain all the fields, menus, and 4GL scripts that define the static functionality common to all frames created from the templates. Assistant procedures coupled with the templates dynamically generate additional fields and queries that make frames created using a specific template unique from one another.
The following table lists all the OpenROAD libraries and their corresponding frame templates:
Library
Frame Template
Core (default)
about_box
active_display
calculator
dialog_box
empty_frame
find_dialog
font_dialog
menu
splash_screen
standard
table_editor
text_editor
finance
financial_calculator
mastdetl
detail
explosion
master_detail
simple_field
table_field
misc
toolbar_window
Note:  Before you can begin to automatically generate frames, you must include the appropriate OpenROAD libraries in your application. If you did not do this earlier, do so now (see Include Predefined Template Packages in Your Application). By default, the core application library is included in your application. For instructions on including additional application libraries in your application, see Specify Included Applications.
