Attribute <unique_name>
Info

A unique name given to an widget, which determines how to reference the widget. This is needed if the widget is being used as a dependency (parent), or if the widget value is being exported. When a unique_name is being referenced it should be by the file (nothing if current file), then unique_name. No spaces or punctuation (except _) are allowed in the name. The name must contain at least 1 non-numeric letter. The name must be unique. Names are not case sensitive, hence “aaa” is the same as “AAA”.

Values string (unique)
Version 1
Used by card, text_box, combo_box, edit_box, table, all elements starting with “custom_control”, check_box, text_box, control_curve
