Creating Actions to Show or Hide Elements

For any element in a process flow, you can create an 'action' to specify that when the element is clicked, other elements in the process flow will be shown or hidden.

To create an action:

  1. On the toolbar (near the top left of the Visual Process Flow Designer), click the actions Actions button tool.

    Identifying numbers are displayed for elements in the process flow, and a screen appears that you use to set up actions.

  2. On a blank line, specify settings for the action:
    • In the Type field, select an action type:
      • show_hide. Clicking the trigger element shows or hides the target element.
      • show. Clicking the trigger element shows the target element.
      • hide. Clicking the trigger element hides the target element.
    • In the Trigger field, enter the number of one or more elements that will trigger the action.

      Note: When entering multiple elements, separate the element numbers with a comma (for example: 23,24,25).

    • In the Target field, enter the number of one or more target elements.
  3. Click OK.
