Setting script triggers for layouts

You can set up script triggers to activate when actions are performed on a specific layout.

To add, change, or delete a script trigger for a layout:

1.	Create the script that you want to trigger.

2.	In Layout mode, select a layout.

3.	Click Layout Setup in the layout bar.

4.	In the Layout Setup dialog box, click the Script Triggers tab and double-click the event that you want to trigger the script.

5.	In the Specify Script dialog box, choose the script.

6.	(optional) To specify a script parameter, type the text you want. Or, click Edit and use the Specify Calculation dialog box to build a more complex parameter, then click OK.

7.	Click OK to close the Specify Script dialog box.

8.	In the Layout Setup dialog box, select modes for the script trigger.

9.

Click OK.

Script triggers set for one layout do not apply to other layouts. To include a script trigger on multiple layouts, repeat these steps on each layout.
