ShowMessageBox
Description
This Action is used to display Info, Error or Question message boxes.
Properties
Specific
-
Message type
Enum
-
Defines the message box that will be displayed:
Info
Error
Question
-
Message
EXPRESSION (string)
-
The content of the message to be displayed.
-
Buttons
EXPRESSION (array:string)
-
This property needs to be defined only for the Question message box. An array of strings is expected here, where each string is mapped to a button, eg
["Save", "Don't Save", "Cancel"]
. It is necessary to add one output in the “Flow – Outputs” section for each button, through which the Flow execution will continue if that button is pressed.
General
-
Description
String
-
This is the description of the Action component. Description is displayed below the component in the Project editor/viewer. In the main toolbar, it is possible to hide or display descriptions of all components with one click.
Flow
-
Inputs
Array
-
Additional component inputs that the user can add as desired in order to use them to receive additional data needed when evaluating expressions in properties. Each input is given a name and type. Name is used when referencing an input within an expression. A type is used to project Check to check whether a data line that transmits data of that type is connected to the input or not.
-
Outputs
Array
-
Additional component outputs that the user can add to send data through. Each output is assigned a name and type. An example of using this output is e.g. in the Loop component, where we can put the output name for the
Variable
property instead of e.g. variable name. In that case, the Loop component will not change the content of the variable in each step, but will send the current value through that output. -
Catch error
Boolean
-
If this checkbox is enabled then an
@Error
output will be added to the component and if an error occurs in this component during the execution of the Flow, the Flow will continue through that output. The data that will be passed through that output is the textual description of the error.
Position and size
-
Align and distribute
Any
-
Alignment icons and component distribution. Alignment icons appear when two or more components are selected, and distribution icons appear when three or more components are selected.
