An Interactivity/Action makes it possible to create the following scenarios:
| • | Clicking an object to activate/show other object |
| • | Clicking an object to play/pause a sound |
| • | Clicking an object to play/pause the movie |
| • | Clicking an object to open a website at a specific address. |
| • | Many more. |
Apart from a mouse click, you can also attach action to mouse release (on-release) and mouse over (on-over). On Release is an event which occurs when the mouse button is released over an object. On Over is an event which occurs when the mouse is moved over an object.
To edit an object action settings, simply click on the object in the preview window or in the timeline, then click on the Action tab at the Selected object properties tab.
By default, the On Press event is selected. Click Add action button to select which action to add in the list. You can add as many action as you want to an event. Click On Press to add action to another event.
The list of possible actions are:
| • | Open a URL. |
| • | Goto a scene |
| • | Rewind scene. The scene will playback from the beginning. |
| • | Pause movie. The movie will pause. |
| • | Play movie. The movie will resume playing if it is paused. |
| • | Email To. |

| • | Play sound/video |

Note that some actions like Play sound/video, Hide/Show object require you to type in the object/target name. This is the name of the object you are targeting. Each object will be created with a default name, however if you wish to change the name, you can go to the object property tab such as Text tab for a text object, right at the top there is a Name text box. Make sure that this name is unique otherwise the action will get confused.
