5.1.4 Actions
An Action is a set of instructions you create (and name) to perform one or more Tasks. Actions are a
powerful key component of XStudio program execution. Actions execute as a result of some sort of
stimulus or "trigger," which can be as a response to an Input Relay, a scheduled event, a log directive,
a hot-key or embedded in a cart and triggered at start of playback.
Action Maintenance Display
Actions are essentially ordered lists of Tasks to perform. By design, Tasks are reusable - once a Task
is created, you can use it in multiple Actions, as needed. When creating new Actions or editing them,
you work with the Action Edit Dialog.
Adding a New Action
In order to create a new action, at least one Task must be defined. If you
attempt to create a new Action and there are no Tasks defined, you will be
prompted to first create a Task.
To create a new Action, click on the [Add Action] button. The Action edit dialog is displayed. Refer to
the Action edit dialog topic for details on naming the Action and creating the the list of Tasks to
perform. When you have completed creation of the new Action and applied the changes, the Action
appears in the actions table display and its tasks are displayed in the Action Task List.
Editing an Action
To edit an Action, select the action you wish to change and [Double-Click] on it. The Action edit dialog
is displayed, as it is when creating a new Action. Edit the Action name or add, remove and reorder
Tasks in the action task list and click on the [Apply] button to save your changes.
