This tutorial is dedicated to the GN4 implementation of the XAML based search panes and dialog boxes.

In the first part of this tutorial, you will read some preliminary explanations ().

Moreover, the introductory part teaches you how to prepare your Visual Studio for the tasks. In case that your Visual Studio is already all set-up, you can skip the related tasks (TASK: Prepare your Visual Studio to be able to search in all configuration and TASK: Prepare your Visual Studio to import configuration files in database).

Several tasks are dedicated to the locating of required files, opening them and locating the appropriate parts of code and understanding them by means of examples and comparing the look "before-and-after".

After you've learned to recognize and understand parts of the searchUI panes and dialog boxes, we teach you how to make simple and easy changes, e.g. change the order of the fields, change the field label etc.

An important part of the tutorial describes the methods to get to know where the specific dialog box is defined in the configuration code - as this is more complicated than it looks like.

Important notice: XAML is case sensitive, so you need to type the examples exactly as specified in the tutorial.
