Topic guide Form Assets (the Media class) Assets as a static definition

A boolean defining inheritance behavior for Media declarations. By default, any object using a static Media definition will inherit all the assets associated with the parent widget. This occurs regardless of how the parent defines its own requirements.

Topic guide Form Assets (the Media class)

String paths used to specify assets can be either relative or absolute. If a path starts with /, http:// or https://, it will be interpreted as an absolute path, and left as-is.
