The Forms Designer includes a Toolbox of default controls. The default control types are divided by tabs. You can add custom tabs to the Toolbox and add custom controls to any of the tabs.

Drag selected scraps of code or text from the Text editor into the Toolbox and then drag them into other files or windows where you want to use them.
Note Only components that extend com.ms.wfc.core.Component and have the ShowInToolbox attribute set (this is set to true by default) are displayed.
To organize your tools, you can:
Copy a Toolbox item from one tab to another tab by pressing CTRL and dragging the selected item to the new tab.
Move a Toolbox item from one tab to another tab by dragging the selected item to the new tab.
Note If you try to move a nonremovable item, dragging it to a new tab will copy it to the new tab instead of moving it.

Clicking Add Tab on the context menu when you right-click the Toolbox to create tabs for customized groupings.
