The first question that everyone (or almost everyone) has asked:

"How do I use "controls"(Views) by name"?

One thing I didn't understand, how or where is "dd" initialized?
I can't find any information.

Private dd As DDD

dd.Initialize
   
'The designer script calls the DDD class. A new class instance will be created if needed.
'In this case we want to create it ourselves as we want to access it in our code.
xui.RegisterDesignerClass(dd)

One thing I did notice in the example was the older method to change / access a views property ..

B4X:

Dim lbl As B4XView = dd.GetViewByName(pnl, "Label1")
lbl.Text = "Clicked!"

whereas you are still able to access the property directly ...

B4X:

dd.GetViewByName(pnl, "Label1").Text = "Clicked!"

Click to expand...

dd.GetViewByName(pnl, "Panel1").As(Panel).Elevation = 6
