Add or edit Elements
Elements can also be referred to as rows in the User Interface Editor. An element can contain one or more fields, which are placed after each other in a row within the same element. Elements are important for naming as they often hold a requirement's name, not the field itself.
An example row is highlighted in yellow below.
