Attaching actions to events on elements
You can attach an action to an event involving any of the following types of elements:
- hyperlinks
- bookmarks
- images
- layers
- form controls
To attach an action to an event on an element
- Select the desired element. (If the element is a hyperlink or bookmark, you can just place the insertion point within it.)
- On the Actions panel, click
(Add).
- In the Action Properties dialog box, select the desired Event and Action.
- Specify the Parameters for the selected action.
- Click OK.
Although you cannot directly attach an action to an ordinary piece of text, you can create a bookmark on the desired text and attach an action to the bookmark.
