GENERATION OF APPLICATION BEHAVIORS
First Claim
1. A method for generating application behavior, the method comprising:
- receiving a component at a design surface, the component representing a user interface element of an application;
receiving a selection of the component;
detecting a selection of at least a portion of a first target component;
based on the selection of the first target component, determining a first property of the first target component to use in an expression, the expression to be dynamically evaluated at runtime of the component; and
automatically generating the expression to change a property of the component based on the first property of the first target component.

Abstract
Examples of the disclosure provide a system and method for receiving a component at a design surface, the component representing a user interface element of an application. A selection of the component is received and a selection of at least a portion of a first target component is detected. Based on the selection of the first target component, a first property of the first target component is determined to use in an expression, the expression to be dynamically evaluated at runtime of the component. The expression automatically generated to change a property of the component based on the first property of the first target component.

1. A method for generating application behavior, the method comprising:
-
receiving a component at a design surface, the component representing a user interface element of an application; receiving a selection of the component; detecting a selection of at least a portion of a first target component; based on the selection of the first target component, determining a first property of the first target component to use in an expression, the expression to be dynamically evaluated at runtime of the component; and automatically generating the expression to change a property of the component based on the first property of the first target component. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A system for generating an application behavior, the system comprising:
-
a design surface implemented on a processor, the design surface configured to receive a control; a component identification mechanism coupled to the design surface and configured to detect a selection of the control and a selection of at least a portion of a first target control; a property selection mechanism coupled to the design surface and configured to determine a first property of the selected portion of the first target control; an expression generation mechanism coupled to the design surface and configured to generate an expression to change a property of the selected control based on the first property of the selected portion of the first target control. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. One or more computer storage devices having computer-executable instructions stored thereon for generating an expression, which, on execution by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving a component at an interactive design surface; receiving a selection of the component via the interactive design surface; detecting a selection of at least a portion of a first target component; based on the received selection, determining a first property of the first target component to use in the expression, the expression to be dynamically evaluated at runtime of the component; and generating the expression to change a property of the component based on the first property of the first target component. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
