Animation Editor
126
The Animation Editor dialog box lists all possible animation actions in the
Runtime Actions column. Attributable objects for the Runtime Actions are
listed in the Trigger Event/Expression column.
Animations can be instigated on a Project, Page or Object basis by selecting
Object Actions, Page Actions or Project Actions from the Actions field.
When opening the Animation Editor while an object within a page is selected,
the Actions field defaults to Object Actions, and the selected object is shown
in the Animation Editor. When accessing the Animation Editor with a page
selected, this field defaults to Page Actions. When opening the Animation
Editor while no selection is made, the Actions field defaults to Project
Actions. The actions that may be applied to an object are dependant on the
type of object selected. Only one type of action, Execute Script, can be applied
to a Page or Project script.
The Users field allows selection of which users can use the selected page in
the Runtime environment. This is used in conjunction with allocating users and
allowing them permission to perform tasks; for further information on allocating
users refer to chapter 6, Projects.
If Object Actions is the current selection for the Actions field, an object
becomes active in the Object (left-most) field. An object within the current
page can be selected from the Object field. The Runtime Actions list is
dependant on the object selected from this box. The Object field is disabled for
Page or Project actions.
Individual listed Runtime Actions are sorted, based on a designated field type,
either Runtime Actions or Trigger Event/Expression. By clicking on the
Runtime Actions button, the points are sorted alphanumerically by Runtime
Actions. The Trigger Event/Expression button, once selected, reacts in the
same way. The Animation Editor dialog box shows the actions associated with
'Polygon_1' sorted in runtime action order.
The typeface of the editor can be amended by selecting Preferences from the
File menu. This is especially useful when printing.
The widths of the animation fields can be widened or narrowed as required
using the mouse to drag the column boundaries.
