Actions

ActionsIcon Description

The actions group serves as a container for actions that should appear toghether in the screen. For example, one of these nodes can contain a group of actions that should appear below a particular grid. Being a simple container it has almost no properties, instead, this node's behaviour is determined by the properties if its children.

Runtime appearance

This node's runtime appearance depends greatly on the appearance of the Action nodes it contains. As the example below demonstrates, it is possible to combine different types of actions within a single actions node.
