The action trigger for the example image object on the page was set to default (or actually “Do nothing”) but can now be changed.

  • If this were the actual launcher app, a user would just tap the Action icon in the upper left of the screen. Pressing **here** on this interactive page will actually navigate to the “Action trigger” page as if in the TL app.

The other alternative “actions” will be shown in the “Option” dialog when the “Option” icon in the upper-left corner of the screen is tapped. Pressing **here** in this interactive page will actually navigate to those other “actions” for the selected object. These are discussed briefly below:

  • Application - the image would link to the application selected by a user, and its trigger action (tap or swipes) would activate that application
  • Window - the Resource:Window dialog would open to allow selection or creation of a window object into which the image object would be placed. See the section on window or continue in this ui navigation to explore the window aspect of graphic image action.
  • Folder - The folder dialog would open, listing any user-created folders or allowing the user to create a new folder as the landing spot for the image action. See the section folder or continue in this ui navigation to see how it could be used.
  • Launcher Action - These are built-in actions of this Launcher, such as to the home page, open the right drawer, change wallpaper, launch calendar, and many more. See the section on Launcher action or continue in this ui navigation to explore these varied actions.
  • Sequence - These are a series of user-created actions that the Launcher will execute. This series or sequence could also be called a “macro”. It provides for linear execution of instructions with no branching or “if this, then that”. See the section on sequences or continue in this ui navigation to explore the feature.
