User Interface Layer

The user interface layer of an eSpace handles the presentation elements.

The element types in the user interface layer are:

Screen: Represents the interaction with the user.
Screen flow: Assembles a set of Screens; each Screen belongs to a Screen flow.

Screen

Holds the complete definition of the visual content as a collection of elements.

Service Studio provides specific editors to define your screens: Web screen editor, Mobile Web screen editor, and SMS screen editor.

The elements represented in screens can be static or dynamic. The content of a dynamic element is presented using visual constructors, called widgets (Combination of the words: Window and Object. Used to presents dynamic content in your screens.).

Screen Flow

Assembles a set of screens linked through connectors.

Mobile Web Flows: A sequence of Mobile Web screens that the user can interact with and navigate through, using a mobile device. See Overview of Mobile Web flows.
