Understanding how events and actions work together

Not all events and actions are available in every publisher/subscriber combination. In each cell, the events and actions listed are for that particular base cell type.

The Actions field drop-down list includes any actions supported by that cell type. The events available for a particular subscription depend on the publisher. The actions for a specific subscription depend on the subscriber.

For example, suppose you make a subscription from a Grid cell to a Map cell.

The publisher is a Map cell. The only event options are AfterCellControlLoaded and MapMarkerClicked.

The subscriber is a Grid cell. The available actions include:

However, these are not all valid event-action relationships. For example, MapMarkerClicked and AssignTrailer is not a valid event-action relationship, even though it is possible to set it up this way.

Some of the correct event-action relationships are shown in the following tables.
