I have a simple HTML Composer form from which I would like to reference a report. I cannot figure out where to do that from. I clicked on the Submit button bur I can't see where to point to a fex.

You have to first add it into the requests list within the Requests & Data Sources panel. You'll see it on the right of your screenshot minimized. Then it will be an option for you under Tasks & Animations. The Tasks & Animations panel is basically a GUI-based way of working with your Js. You can also just use the Embedded JavaScript/CSS tab instead. But note, if you do and want to toggle between Js and CSS, you have to go the Settings panel and select one or the other therein. Fun huh? lol

I like to rework my HTML Canvas/Composer paneling to be tabbed to the right myself by first pinning each and then dragging the pinned panel into the middle box option that becomes visible after you begin to drag the panel you pinned. Hopefully that makes sense. lol

With App Studio's they changed it so that you first have to link the external fex in the "Requests & Datasources and then you add in the request.



Also, if it comes up. In order to rename something in the Requests you have to click it once to select and then click it again to be able to rename. At least I haven't found any other way than that to rename.
