Event Triggers

The Event Trigger App is located in the Content Tab of the Fuzor App Menu. This app contains a list for you to manage your event triggers. The red circle in the Event Trigger List denotes that a task is inactive. To activate the trigger, click the circle.

When it changes from red to green, the trigger is activated. You can remove a trigger from this list with the trash can button. You can rename a trigger by double clicking its name in the list. You can group triggers together by selecting them with SHIFT + Left Click. Once you have your desired triggers selected Right Click them and select the Add to New Group button. This is a good way to keep large amounts of event triggers organized.

The Global Visualizer check box toggles the display of tags for the Event Triggers associated with objects.

The Open Editor drop down menu allows you to open various editors associated with event triggers. These options are Counters, Timers and Dialogs. Each menu allows you to create and manage objects of the associated type.

The Create button creates a new event trigger.

The Clone button makes a copy of the currently selected event trigger(s).

Once you have created an event you can select it by clicking on it in the Event Trigger List. This opens the full Event Trigger App. This window displays information about you currently selected trigger. An Event Trigger is made up of two parts, an action and an event. Events specify what sorts of conditions trigger associated actions. Whereas actions specify what happens when an associated event is triggered. Each event trigger can have any number of events and actions. Any event can be bound to any action.

The Event Type drop down menu adds a selected event to the Event List.

The Action Type drop down menu adds a selected action to the Action List.

Below is a screenshot of the Event Trigger App user interface and information about key components.

Both actions and events list will display any event or action that is associated with the currently selected event trigger. You can select an event or action from these lists respectively and the parameters of that event or action will appear in either the Event Parameter View or the Action Parameter View. These views will allow you to change specific parameters associated with an action or event and will change based on the type of action or event you have selected in their respective lists.

The Check All Events check box specifies whether all triggers must be met or just one. If check all events is on then all events must be true at the same time in order for the actions to happen. If the check box is off then any event that is true will trigger the action.

The left Clone button clones your currently selected event.

The right Clone button duplicates you currently selected action.

The Test Actions button triggers all of your actions associated with your event trigger for testing purposes
