Display "Edit Action List" for a link annotation

Post by zarkogajic »

Hi Support,

How can I execute/show the "Edit Action List" dialog for a specified link type annotation?

p.s.
The same thing that happens when a link is double clicked.

Hello, zarkogajic

At the moment this is not exposed to the API, but we will look into adding it for you in a future release. For now, we have a ticket on this:

RT#7535: FR: Ed-SDK - Display actions list for links

Hello, zarkogajic

Good point, form fields similarly have actions in this area which I don't believe are accessible. I added a note to the ticket to try and "catch all" with this function, instead of making something specific to links only.

Hello, I may have spoken too soon!

One of our other devs just found this gem, which it seems some of us forgot about:
https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/view/PX ... ionListDlg
Perhaps this will fulfil the needs?

Hi Dan,

Smells like this could be it when there are actions.

Will try and report back.

If link annotation has no actions ... ?

Hello, zarkogajic

My understanding is it should work regardless. If the selected item *can* contain actions, it should always interact with actions list functions, even when that list is "empty".
