Overview
In application development, various user interactions trigger events that can be harnessed to perform specific actions or functions. Let's explore the range of events available in DronaHQ, designed to enhance user interactivity and streamline application behavior.
You have been using the input controls like the Text control, the numeric control, currency as well as the selection controls like drop-down control, checkbox control, radio control, and so on. We have seen how to bind data using different data sources. Now at times, you have wanted to add actions that should be performed on the happening of an event like once you select or change the selection from a dropdown or radio control, you may want some action to be performed. Similarly when a control loses focus, then you may want to trigger some action. For this reason, we have a set of action events added to the different types of controls, screens and apps.
