Atlas — Standard Control rules without parameters |
Your system contains more than 500 standard control rules (formerly HTML Property rules). Use the Rules by Type Explorer to see a complete list of the standard and custom control rules available to you.
A few control rules accept parameters to provide a wide range of display formats for input values and output values. When possible, use of parameter-based control rules in section rules, flow actions, and harness rules is recommended. If you follow this recommendation, your application uses fewer distinct rules and operates more efficiently. For a list, see Standard control rules with parameters.
These standard control rules without parameters are notable.
