LVconf Editor: Open New

TIBCO strongly recommends using one of the LiveView Project wizards to create your LiveView artifacts and their underlying lvconf files. Advanced users may prefer to directly create and open a new lvconf file as described on this page.

Note

To open the LiveView Configuration File Editor on a new, empty lvconf file, the current context in Studio's Project Explorer view must be a LiveView Fragment project, or must be a selection in the LiveView Project Viewer. The following options do not work when the context is an EventFlow or Java fragment.

First, select anywhere in a LiveView fragment project in the Project Explorer, or select an icon in the LiveView Project Viewer. Then:

  • Select File>New>TIBCO LiveView Configuration File and click Next.

  • Click the drop-down arrow next to the New toolbar button (), and select TIBCO LiveView Configuration File from the drop-down menu.

  • Right-click anywhere in a LiveView fragment project and select New>TIBCO LiveView Configuration File from the context menu.

  • Press Ctrl+N (Windows) or Command+N (Mac) to open the New dialog. Navigate to LiveView>TIBCO LiveView Configuration File and click Next.

  • Windows only. Press Alt+Shift+N () to open the File>New menu at the cursor location. Select TIBCO LiveView Configuration File.

These actions open a dialog with the src/main/liveview folder of the current LiveView fragment project selected.

Specify a file name and the desired lvconf file type:

See LiveView Configuration File Types for a description of each lvconf file type.
