WIDGETS AND LIVE TEXT

How do I configure a widget action?
Configure a widget action to act on a recognized Live Text pattern.

About this task

You can configure, or wire, an action to specify a widget behavior.

For an example, see "How to create a wired Google Gadget widget (area weather)"in the wiki.

Alternatively you can use the Widget Management view to create or edit an action.

Procedure

1. Right-click a widget in the My Widgets sidebar panel and select Configure a New Action.

Alternatively, you can configure an action while you create the widget using the wizards.

2. In the Action name field, specify a new action name.

The action name will appear in the list of actions for Live Text.

3. In the What content do you want to use area, specify if you want to use recognized content or other content.

If you select

Other Content

the choices are

Text selection

and

Feed item

If you select Recognized content you can specify a new or existing content type name.

For both types you can wire a Content type property item to a Widget property item. If you want to wire more than one Content type property and Widget property, use the Advanced tab.

4. In the Where do users see the results of this action area, specify if the action should appear in a sidebar panel, new window, floating window, or tab.

5. Click OK.
