    • canCreateUI

      default boolean canCreateUI(LinkData data)
      Method returning if this property could potentially be (action, field or table) or contain (group) properties that can create UI components when drag-dropped.
      Parameters:
      data - The link data.
      Returns:

    • isLinkCapable

      default IStatus isLinkCapable(LinkData data)
      Returns if this property container could potentially be link capable.

      Returns:

      Called when the drag-drop is to be performed (link or paste-link menu item). The link-capable instance fills in only what it handles.
      Specified by:
      getLinkOperations in interface ILinkCapable
      Parameters:
      data - The link data.
