# Properties

### **Properties**

When you select a field on the canvas, the **right sidebar** will show the specific **component properties** panel. There you can set what kind of data and other content your UI components display, configure how they function and define how they are bound to app data.

### [Events - A**ctions**](/any2info-academy/no-code-platform/app-studio/application-design/forms/fields-toolbox/general/events-actions.md)

Some fields, for example buttons, have the possibility to set an action on a click event.&#x20;

Selecting the field on the canvas will open the right bar panel where you can add actions.

### [**Links**](/any2info-academy/no-code-platform/app-studio/app-logic/dashboards/dashboard-links.md)&#x20;

On a form page you can link specific fields, and their specific data, to other fields.&#x20;

For example:&#x20;

* Link a textbox field  to a list field
* Link a list field to another list field or a search field

All links are created by using the properties of an available data clip. These properties can be selected and mapped in the relevant data clip. See the section [**Mapping fields**](/any2info-academy/no-code-platform/app-studio/data/mapping-form-data.md)**.**
