CustomViewAction

Qualified name: delphifmx.CustomViewAction

class CustomViewAction

Bases: CustomAction

A base class for actions that show a specified component when executed. Descendants of TCustomViewAction can be associated with a component that is made visible when the action executes. TCustomViewAction extends TCustomAction declaring the component that the action shows when it executes. TObjectViewAction extends the TCustomViewAction class that defines the FmxObject property and keeps the component value that should be the TFmxObject type object in this case. Descendants of TObjectViewAction are associated with the TFmxObject type component that is made visible when the action executes. TVirtualKeyboard and TViewAction are standard actions that descend from TObjectViewAction. Contrary to ordinary actions (like TAction, TControlAction, TCustomValueRangeAction, and so on) TCustomViewAction (and its descendants) does not distribute changes in values of Caption, Enabled, Checked, GroupIndex, ShortCut, Visible, and OnExecute properties to the respective properties of clients linked with action links.

HandlesTarget(Target: Object) bool

Introduces an interface for verifying that the type and state of a target component or control are appropriate for the action. FMX.ActnList.TCustomViewAction.HandlesTarget inherits from System.Classes.TBasicAction.HandlesTarget. All content below this line refers to System.Classes.TBasicAction.HandlesTarget. Introduces an interface for verifying that the type and state of a target component or control are appropriate for the action. HandlesTarget does nothing in TBasicAction. HandlesTarget was introduced in TBasicAction so that descendants can override it to check the type and state of a target. HandlesTarget can verify any information about a target that is relevant for the action. HandlesTarget returns True if the target meets the specified criteria, False otherwise.

Update()

Provides an opportunity to execute centralized code when an application is idle.
