Adding Actions in different ways

Adding a block is possible in different ways:

  • Or select the exact place by moving the cursor between Actions.
  • You can drag and drop an Action Block to change its order or move it to another element.

Keep in mind that each panel will indicate if its in focus and each Operation will act in different ways depending on which panel is on focus!

Element Operations

If you want to duplicate the configuration of one element to another, select the Element on the Grid layout panel in the middle and then Cmd/Ctrl + C to copy and Cmd/Ctrl + V to paste it to another selected Element.

You can also use the icons to:
