Events

JavaScript developers should be familiar with events and how they relate to objects. (Essentially, an event is an action that you can associate with an object. For example, "when the user clicks this object, perform this action.")

In Lawson Design Studio script windows, when an object is selected, a list of events available to be used with the object appears in the Events dropdown box. When you select the event, a JavaScript function stub for that event and object appears automatically in the script window.

Events are documented in the Object Viewer. (In previous versions of this document, events were listed, but now the Object Viewer contains the most up-to-date information on events and so information has been removed from this document.)
