View System and Messages
Summary
In this chapter, you learned how the Newton view system creates the views in your application. You also found out about the components of a view and the three important messages the view system sends to each view when it is opened:
viewSetupFormScript
viewSetupChildrenScript
viewSetupDoneScript
After detailing the other view methods you can use, we discussed declaring views as a way to give an ancestor access to a child's slots.
