Runtime Actions SECTION 9 Animation

To define the animation, an expression consisting of a number of operators
and operands (which may be based on the status of a point) must be entered
in the Expression: field.
The boundaries in which the object moves are inserted into the Active
Expression Range/Required Width: fields. The Maximum Width specifies the
required width in pixels of the object when the result of the expression reaches
the Maximum Value. The Minimum Width specifies the required width in pixels
of the object when the result of the expression reaches the Minimum Value. A
value within the maximum and minimum values results in a proportionate
width between the minimum and maximum widths. The resizing also requires
an anchor and direction in which to stretch or shrink. This can be specified as
the left of the object, right of the object or centrally to the object, by selecting
the appropriate Justification: setting.
To abort the Resize Width definition, click the Cancel button. By clicking the

Runtime Actions. When completed, click the OK button. If invalid data has
been inserted into any field, a descriptive error message opens.
