Text Links.


Fig. 1

The Text Inspector is always up, that is, when you have expanded the inspector palette, and to this you apply your text links, when a text has been marked.

The visitor can execute Actions either by some sort of interaction with Text links , either by:

Mouse Click (Visitor clicks the mouse).

Mouse Enter (Visitor enters a specific area of the page).

Mouse Exit (Visitor exits a specific area of the page).

Double Click (Visitor double clicks a specific area of the page).

Mouse Down (Visitor hold her/his mouse button down on a specific area of the page).

Mouse Up (Visitor releases her/his mouse button on a specific area of the page).

Mouse Move (Visitor moves the mouse over a specific area of the page).

Below options are for "Form Input Images".

Key Down (When any key is pressed, can be any key or a specific key)

Key Press (When any key is pressed, can be any key or a specific key).

Key Up (Executes an Action on the release of a key).

Key Focus (Executes an Action when the visitor selects the field).

Key Blur (Executes an Action when the visitor leaves a filed).

How to Apply an Action to a Text.

Commonly used are Mouse Click, Mouse Enter or Mouse Exit.
I will focus on Mouse Click because Actions are applied exactly the same way, whichever option you choose.
When you want to open a new window, - with some browser window chrome turned of or a specific browser window size, you will use a sort of window open action.

You have the option here to enable or disable all or just some of these options, — called as one, 'Browser Window Chrome' settings, — depending on how you'd like the window rendered.
