Adding Computation Actions

You can add a computation action from the mappings tab of an element.

1. In the Form Designer canvas or Outline view, select the component or element for which you want to add a computation action.
2. Go to the Mappings tab in the Properties view of the selected element.
   Note: If you are adding a computation action to a grid pane control, make sure the Visible property is enabled.
3. Click the New Computation Action node in the source tree. By clicking on this node, you can specify the name of the computation action in direct edit mode.
4. Press Enter to commit the newly created computation action name and display the Rule Details page of the New Rule dialog.
5. Follow the instructions given in the Adding a Rule Using the Outline View section to create a new computation action.

   After the new computation action is created, it is visible in the source tree.

6. To connect the newly-created computation action to its destination, drag the computation action and drop it on the target property of a component in the target tree.

   This completes the creation of the computation action.
