Also applies to menu items. Easy, fast, without coding and with a minimum
effort.<BR>

Simply rightmouse click on your RADvolution form and select 'Manage control
state ...'. A collection editor designer pops up allowing you to add conditions
and actions. This allows easy maintenance and you have an overview of all
the conditions and actions in your form.</P>

<FONT face="Verdana" size="2"><STRONG>Invert</STRONG><BR>
Using invert technology you only have to mention one way of an action.
<BR>
E.g. enabling a control if the condition is true, automatically means that the
control is disabled when the condition is false.<BR>
</FONT>
<LI>
<FONT face="Verdana" size="2"><STRONG>Semantics</STRONG><BR>
Using a semantics group you only have to select one control of a group!<BR>
The action will automatically apply to all other controls in the
group.<BR>
You do not need to create a Panel anymore for grouping purposes!<BR>
Semantics groups are automatically created by the auto layout process.<BR>
<BR>
E.g. enabling a group of controls means only 1 control needs to be selected
using an ActionRange of SemanticsGroup (the default).<BR>

Complex conditions can be handled by condition events.
<BR>
This enables you to create your own custom conditions in source code.<BR>
In the same way complex actions can be handled too.<BR>
<BR>
<STRONG>
<asp:Image id="Image6" runat="server" ImageUrl="\images\Balls\GreenBall.PNG" Height="12px"
Width="12px"></asp:Image> More actions ...</STRONG><BR>
More actions than enabling/hiding controls are supported. Actions like setting
a required entry according to a specific condition. Or actions which set the
Font, BackColor or ForeColor of a control.</FONT></P>
