File $projectDirectory/resources/xml/model/film/CustomerDIGENERATED.xml describes the layout of Customer entity.

Following XML elements:

Change XML elements

Copy CustomerDIGENERATED.axml file to CustomerDI.axml which will become the reference for generated code.
Replace above XML lines with the following ones:

Remark:
File CustomerDIGENERATED.axml is copied as file CustomerDI.axml and File CustomerEDITORGENERATED.axml is copied as file CustomerEDITOR.axml. So that, if a generation process occurs, changes will not be affected.
Change completely layouts is made easy.
