Event List

For most design tasks, it is sufficient to have the Type option set to Multi-Line Script, which does not allow for explicit event control. BarTender will evaluate the structure of both your template(s) and your script and determine the optimal times (or events) for executing your script. Event Control Scripts are for the rare times when you need more precise control over when your scripts execute.

You can access the Event List in the following circumstances:

• If you open the Script Assistant by selecting Visual Basic Script as the data source type on the Data Source property page, and you select Event Control Scripts from the Type dropdown list.

• If you open the Script Assistant from the VB Scripting dialog.

How the Event List Controls Multiple Scripts

When the Type option is set to Multi-line Script, a data source will usually have just one script associated with it. However, when Type is set to Event Control Scripts, each event that you click on in the Event List can have its own separate script displayed in the edit box. For more information, see Understanding the Use of Multiple Event Scripts.
