  4. Select the identifier screen that you want to customize.
  5. Drag a widget from the Widget Palette or Widget Repository Outline panel, to the appropriate position in the Identifier Outline panel. You can add widgets from the Widget Palette to the Widget Repository Outline as well, so that they can be referenced in the Identifier Outline panel. Similarly, you can add multiple widgets.

    While you are positioning the selected widget, green color indicates that you can place the widget in the selected position. Red color indicates that you cannot place the widget in the selected position. You can also rearrange widgets by placing the selected widget either before, after, or within a widget.
