# Select/Deselect

Specifies what actions are performed when the component is selected, deselected or both. Selected/Deselected allows you to define the desired user interface behavior without writing any code. The values for the action tags are expressed as component_list (for Enable, Disable, Refresh, Show, and Hide) and pane_list (for Display).

Component_list is a list of UI component identifiers separated by commas. The component identifier is a string identifier in the form, panel_name.component_name, where panel_name is the name of the panel in which the component is defined, and component_name is the name of the component. If the target component if defined within the same panel as this component, the identifier does not need to be qualified with the panel name.

Pane_list is a list of window pane identifiers separated by commas. A window pane identifier is a string in the form, subpane1_name.pane1_name, where subpanel_name is the name of the aggregate subpanel in which the panel resides, and panel_name is the name of the panel. An aggregate subpanel is a type of container which is capable of displaying multiple panels, such as a tabbed window. If the target panel resides within the same aggregate subpanel as the component, the identifier does not need to be qualified with the subpanel name.

When you select Selected/Deselected and any of the associated choices from the context menu, the pointer cursor changes to a hand selection cursor if the cursor is over a component that can be added to the list.
If you want to assign actions to components on other panels, right-click the target component, and select either Selected or Deselected, and then select From other panel.

The actions that are performed based on your choice are as follows:

Enable

> Specifies that the target component is enabled for user input.

Disable

> Specifies that the target component is disabled for user input.

Refresh

> Specifies that the data for the target component is refreshed. Changes are applied, but not committed, before the refresh occurs.

Show

> Specifies that the target component is displayed on the panel.

Hide

> Specifies that the target component is hidden from view.

Display

> Specifies the target panel displayed by the aggregate subpanel.
