Event Handler Parms dialog box

Use this dialog box to set error messages and other specifications for an event handler.

Field/Option Description
Type Specific Parameters Click this button to set specifications that are unique to the response type for this event handler.
Error Message Enter the message to be displayed when the event handler returns an error. You can include string names and any of the WinStudio substitution keywords.
Success Message Enter the message to be displayed when the event handler succeeds. You can include string names and any of the WinStudio substitution keywords.
Only When Current Collection Is Select the name of the collection to which this event handler applies. Normally, event handlers execute regardless of the currently active collection or the specific collection operation that generated the event.
Only When Platform Select the name of the platform (Windows, Web, or All) to which this event handler applies. Normally, event handlers execute regardless of the currently active platform.
Ignore Failure Select this check box to classify any result returned by this event handler as a success. Use this setting if you want subsequent event handlers to continue to execute even if this event handler returned a failure.

Otherwise, clear this check box. Use this setting if you want the failure of this event handler to stop the execution of subsequent event handlers.

Message on Status Line Select this check box to display the error and success messages in the application status line. Clear this check box to display these messages in a pop-up dialog box.
Disabled Select this check box to temporarily disable the event handler. WinStudio will not run a disabled event handler, even if its other execution criteria are satisfied. Clear this check box to enable the event handler.
