The Variforms view displays all tables and forms effective at the user's login scope. In other words, unlike the Database Backed Variforms view (on page 1), it does not list tables or forms that are out of a user's login scope. For more information on scoping concepts, see Scoped objects in N4 (on page 1).

You can use the Actions Reload All Variforms option to reload a form and to view any changes made to the form without restarting N4. N4 prompts you to select whether to apply the changes to the current node or all nodes. Select Only update local node (default) if you want to test the changes locally before propagating the changes to all nodes. Select Propagate changes to all nodes if you are ready to distribute the changes to all nodes in the cluster.

The Export Type column in this view indicates which variforms you can export to GNX. If GNX is supported, you can export the form using the Display Export XML option in the appropriate list view.

Right-clicking a variform entry and selecting Show Diagnostics opens a detailed diagnostic view that includes the variform's source XML definition.
