The Option Box Options dialog can be displayed by clicking on the Options... push button in the Edit Option Box dialog. This dialog presents additional attributes of an option box, primarily related to dynamic behavior. The dialog consists of one section, Callback Events.
This section presents the different callback events which the option buttons owned by the option box can be made to respond to.
| Got Focus | If this field is checked, the option buttons owned by the option box respond to a "GotFocus" event and terminate a FORM INPUT command. A "GotFocus" event occurs when one of the option buttons owned by the option box receives the input focus, by a mouse click, tabbing or an accelerator key. After the FORM INPUT command terminates, the event vector Event is populated as follows: Event.EventName contains the string "GotFocus", Event.EventType contains the string "FormField", and Event.EventTag contains the Field Tag value associated with the option box or if blank, the option box's Field Name. |
| Lost Focus (Always) | If this field is checked, the option buttons owned by the option box respond to a "Lost Focus (Always)" event and terminate a FORM INPUT command. A "Lost Focus (Always)" event occurs when one of the option buttons owned by the option box loses the input focus, by a mouse click, tabbing or an accelerator key. After the FORM INPUT command terminates, the event vector Event is populated as follows: Event.EventName contains the string "LostFocus", Event.EventType contains the string "FormField", and Event.EventTag contains the Field Tag value associated with the option box or if blank, the option box's Field Name. |
