Most other painters are accessible from the New dialog box. Some are also available on the PowerBar and from the Tools menu.
Select Target/Project for Open
You may see the Select Target/Project for Open dialog box if you use the same library in more than one target/project. When you open an object in a library that is used in multiple targets/projects, PowerBuilder needs to set global properties for the specific target/project you are working on. If you open the object from the Workspace/Solution page when the root is not set to the current workspace/solution, PowerBuilder asks you which target/project you want to open it in. A similar dialog box displays if you select Inherit, Run/Preview, Regenerate, Print, or Search.
