Default actions

Default actions are provided depending on the control type. Default actions might be referenced from within an application, but might also be overloaded in specific application context.

Default actions are listed for each control type ( Design objects/Control style reference ). Below, all actions are listed in alphabetic order.

Default actions are predefined within the GUI frame work. This definition simply refers to an action label (displayed text) and a short cut. In order to change label text or add icons, action controls might be defined in the designer. Action controls having the same name as the default action will overload short cut, label, icon, font, tool tip and help text.

By setting the action control for a default action to disabled, it might be removed from the list of default controls.

Defining action controls for an application allows setting application defaults for standard actions. Those might be overloaded later on by specific user or run-time settings in the Options.GUI.Actions section.

There are limited options for overload default actions at run-time. By creating an entry in the Options.GUI.Actions section referring to the default actions name, one may suppress a default action, change the short cut or set the initial state for the action to hidden or disabled.
