How To Add And Keep Custom Code Changes In Your App

This article explains how you can add custom code to your mobile app, generated by the Telerik Platform Views service (formerly Screen Builder), so that these changes are not overwritten the next time you edit the app in the Views service.
When you generate an app with the Views service, it's common to enhance and modify the generated code in AppBuilder. If you want to do that but want to return to the Views service to edit the app again, e.g. add a new or edit an existing view without losing the custom code changes, you should follow certain rules. In every file generated by the Views service there is a block comment outlining an area dedicated for such custom code changes.

Telerik Navigation Type

The predefined navigation types that you can choose from in the Telerik Platform Views service are:
  • Tab Menu: displays a tab for each view included in the navigation. The position of the tab menu depends on the current operating system. The menu is part of the layout of each view included in the navigation.
    With Tab Menu navigation, you can choose the transition effect that will be used when navigating between views. When you choose this navigation type, the Telerik Platform Views service shows a dropdown list with the available options.
    Currently applicable only to Hybrid mobile apps.
  • Drawer: displays a button in the header or footer that triggers a drawer menu containing an item for each view included in the navigation. The position of the button depends on the current operating system. The drawer button is part of the layout of each view included in the navigation.
    Currently applicable only to Hybrid mobile apps.
  • List Menu: displays a main navigation that lists all views included in the navigation. When the user navigates to a view, a Back and Index buttons are displayed in the view header.
    With List Menu navigation, you can choose the transition effect that will be used when navigating between views. When you choose this navigation type, the Telerik Platform Views service shows a dropdown list with the available options.
  • None: does not implement any navigation. Use this option when you want to implement custom navigation later in AppBuilder.
