Action
Action Specifies the type of action for this task. Each type brings up different options:
No Special Action Do nothing. You should use one (or several) of the embed-points to hand code some action.
Call Procedure Call a prodecure directly. The settings are just as the standard Clarion "Call Procedure" .
Mimic button Hides the task when the button specified in "Control" is disabled. If the button is enabled, then the task is visible. If the PROP:Text of the button is changed, this will also be reflected in the taskpanel. Use "mimic button" to add browse-control in your taskpanel (refer the example-application).
When "Mimic Button" is selected, the tasks title will be extracted from the button (using PROP:Text). If "Mimic Button" is not selected, the title specified for the task will be used.
If the "Don't mimic icon" option is checked and the mimiced button has no compile time icon name, Button{PROP:Icon} is used instead. If "Don't mimic icon" is unchecked the icon-name is extracted from the button (STD-icons are not supported). Otherwise the icon specified for the task is used.
Post Event Posts the specified event. If you specify "Control" the event will be posted to this event. You can also specify which thread should reveice the event.
Select Tab Activate a Tab-control. Just choose the Tab-control you want to activate (bring to front). When this action is executed, EVENT:TabChanging will be posted to the parent Sheet.
Set Field Value Assign a value to a variable. The Value field could be any valid Clarion expression/assignment.
