Action buttons
Action buttons are a good way of making a clause more user friendly in documents. They can have three functions:
execute a saved search
browse a folder of your choosing
present preselected clauses
This way, when the clause with the action button was included in a document, the action button gives the user a shortcut to add further relevant (sub)clauses to the document.
Adding an action button to a clause
Start editing a clause (either in the Browse Files mode or in Assemble Document). In the navigation menu on the right, go to Action Button.
button caption — Create a caption for the button (i.e. the text that will be visible on the button), optionally in multiple languages.
button position — Where the button should be positioned relative to this clause’s subclauses.
hide button when — The button can optionally be hidden when at least one subclause exists.
action — Choose one of the three options described above.
Tips for using action buttons
Action buttons are especially suited for use when a clause can have several optional subclauses.
When there is a high number of optional subclauses, it is preferable to use the option to browse to a folder. The contents of that folder can be easily managed (by removing or adding clauses to it) as well.
