Controls are the prebuilt visual components that you add to your apps that allow your users to view and interact with data. Some of the more common controls are the following:
- Labels
- Buttons
- Forms
- Checkboxes
- Galleries
You add controls using the Insert tab of Canvas Studio, selecting the appropriate control, dragging it into place in the middle pane, and setting its properties in the right-hand pane and in the formula bar:
