Device ActionsTable of Contents
This module allows you to set up the actions you want to associate when you plug new devices.
You will see listed all of the possible actions that are available when devices are plugged in. Please note that they will only be available under certain conditions.
This will ask you to supply a name for your new action, then will open that action for editing. If you do not supply all the required details in that dialog, then your action will be deleted.
This will allow you to change the Name, Icon, command to execute and the conditions the action must match to be shown.
This will do different actions, depending on if it was supplied with your system or created by you. You can only discard changes to system wide actions, if there are no changes then these actions cannot be deleted. User created actions are completely removed, including all changes.
The button brings you a dialog to enter the new action name.
The action name should correctly describe the action. After entering a name and clicking , the Edit Action dialog will show to allow you to set up the action properties.
This dialog allows you to change the settings of the action you selected.
This includes the icon, the action name, the action command and the various parameters. You can change the icon by clicking on it.
The parameters are displayed in a tree, the top item having to be true in order for the action to be shown.
