Creating SmartObject Alternate Layouts

You can create an alternate layout for a SmartObject or SmartContainer much like you do for a basic procedure file (see the "Creating Alternate Layouts" section). However, you should not enter a run-time expression to determine the active layout. Figure B–3 shows the Alternate Layout dialog box that appears for a SmartObject.

Figure B–3: Alternate Layout Dialog Box for SmartObjects

This example shows the setting for an alternate layout, Address Information, created for the SmartObject. Note the Don’t use Run-time Expression option. This appears only for SmartObjects and is turned on by default. To activate a run-time expression for this layout, turn off the option. The default setting when you turn it off is FALSE.
