In GX WebManager 9, "link behaviors" were referred to as "link models". While the name has been changed in many parts of XperienCentral, you will still come across this old term in some interfaces, classes and stylesheets. In XperienCentral, "link behaviors" and "link models" refer to the exact same functionality. |
