# Loose Bindings

Setting a loose binding lets you specify a default resource that will be used if no explicit resource has been set. The loose bindings dialog allows a lot of flexibility because widgets can be referred to by their widget name, their class name or even by a wildcard indicating that any widget fitting the description is applicable. You can also specify how general to make the binding.

- You wish all buttons in your design to have the same background Color
- You wish all buttons in a particular RowColumn to be displayed in the same font.
- You wish all "Help" or "Ok" buttons in your application to share the same label
