Custom Methods
Custom methods allow you to add your own component functions to a component that can be called through scripting. This is a useful and clean method of re-using script that is specific to the component (say you want to update a visual aspect of the component in the same way whether a user clicks on the component or a window property value changes). See Component Custom Methods in the Ignition Help Manual for more information.

Customizers
Table Customizer
Table Customizer manages the data entered into the Recipe Change Log Viewer. It will allow you to modify the data which is stored inside the Recipe Change Log Viewer. Thus the formatting and alignments are made easy.
Column Configuration
Header - Provide a custom name to the column header.
Hide? - Hides the column.
Editable - Allows the editing of the cell pertaining to the column.
Sortable - To make a column filter the data on user's demand.
Sortable - Allows the user to sort the table according to the selected column.
Horiz Align - Aligns the contents of the column.
Vert Align - Aligns the contents of the column.
Wrap Text? - Data in the cell wraps to fit the column width. When you change the column width, data wrapping adjusts automatically.
Prefix - A custom text that proceeds the contents of each cell.
Suffix - A custom text that follows the contents of each cell.
Number Format - A format of the cell is the contents of the cell are number types.
Date Format - Used if the contents of the cell are date types.
Boolean? - Changes the contents of the cell to reflect a 'check box' look and feel.
