Edit a Sequence Action

In order to edit one of the actions organized within a specific sequence, users have to select the affected sequence first. This is done by clicking on one of the sequence navigation tabs (Installation, Administration, Advertisement) on the upper left corner of the SEQUENCING view, followed by the selection of the actual sequence type (execution or ui).

 

Editing the Condition for an Action

All types of actions (standard, custom, dialog) may be edited towards the condition statement that is evaluated to determine whether or not the specific action should be executed during the sequence.

 

To edit the condition of a sequence action, users have to load the action properties into the details pane on the right-hand side of the SEQUENCING view. Below the tiled information about the action, there is a large input field. This is exactly the place to define the conditions that have to be fulfilled, which actually means have to be evaluated to TRUE, in order to execute the action itself during the sequence run-time.

 

Since conditional statements for evaluation during run-time tend to turn into complex structures, RayPack has its own condition builder, assisting users with pre-defined phrases, snippets and operators. Please refer to the common dialog section about the condition builder for more details.

Manipulating Custom Actions

Further manipulations are only available for custom actions that have been added to a sequence. To edit one of the custom actions, users have to:

 

•Right-click the custom action item from the list view, and select Edit from the context menu.

•Left-click the custom action item from the list view, and click on the black title tile of the custom action within the details-pane on the right.

 

The Action Properties dialog is opened, revealing all custom action settings that may be manipulated. Please refer to the specific help topic regarding custom action handling to get detailed information on available settings and options.
