Description

Within Build.One Content Types will be used in many different ways to integrate different types without any coding or database schema changes. Not every use case for content types needs every attribute.

Examples:

Control SwatImage: Define different image types for different screens where images are needed
Control SwatText: Define different text types for different screens where text is needed
Control TreeGrid: Define different position types
