test{{Version/ServerSince|4.8}} One of the [[Drag and Drop Actions]] in UBIK 3.7.1 and above is the automatic creation of new [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItems]].  <!-- DO NOT REMOVE THIS -->{{Template:HowTo/Begin}}<!-- DO NOT REMOVE THIS --> = Instructions =<!-- DO NOT MODIFY THE NAME OF THIS SECTION, BUT REMOVE IT IF NOT REQUIRED -->== Trigger == It can be triggered by dragging the designated child MetaClass onto the designated parent MetaClass. Confirm your decision to create a [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItem]] by clicking on the upcoming context menu item “Create Reference View Item and add it to a View”. [[File:DragDropViewItem.png]] == Link property selection == There are three possible outcomes for the choice of the link property:# If there does not exist any fitting reference link property on the dragged MetaClass you will get a warning message that you will have to create one and enter its name into the “Reference” property of the just created [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItem]] manually. # If there already is a fitting link property on the dragged MetaClass, this one will be used automatically.# If more than one fitting link property exist, you will be asked which one you want to use as reference. You can select one by clicking on its Radiobutton (you can only select one item) then confirm your choice with "OK". If you do not want to use one of these properties you can just close the window and the Reference property of the [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItem]] will be left empty. [[File:SingleselectionWindow.png]] == View selection == After that a second Window will appear where you can choose multiple existing [[VIEW|Views]] to which you want to add the just created [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItem]] by checking them and confirming with the "OK" button. If you do not want to add the [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItem]] to a [[VIEW|View]], you can just close the window. [[File:MultipleselectionWindow.png]] The process is done and a [[REFERENCEVIEWITEM|ReferenceViewItem]] is created and added to the [[VIEW|Views]] automatically. The changes are saved automatically. <!-- DO NOT REMOVE THIS -->{{Template:HowTo/End}}<!-- DO NOT REMOVE THIS --> ==See also==<!-- DO NOT MODIFY THE NAME OF THIS SECTION, BUT REMOVE IT IF NOT REQUIRED -->* [[HowTo:Create a new ViewItem]]* [[HowTo:Create a new View]]* [[Drag and Drop Actions]]
