<p>Many actions are commonly listed in the 'Events' tab of the Object Inspector. If you select an entry in the list, a ComboBox appears with a DropDown list showing any actions that have aleady been defined, and allowing you to choose one to be associated with this event. Alternatively you can select the ellipsis (three dots ...) and you will be taken to an area of the Source Editor where you can begin typing your own action instructions for the selected event.</p>
<p>While a large number of events is available for any given control, in practice it is only necessary to populate a few of them. For most controls, it is sufficient to provide coding for 'OnClick'; for more complex controls it may be necessary also to provide for 'OnEntry' (when the mouse cursor enters the Control and gives it focus) and 'OnExit' (when the mouse cursor leaves the Control; or you may need to write an event handler for 'OnChange' or 'OnScroll', depending on the nature of the particular control with which you are dealing.</p>
<p>A common strategy in Object-Oriented programming is to provide an <link id="ActnList.TActionList">ActionList</link> with a number of pre-defined actions from which the most appropriate can be selected to use in any particular instance.</p>
<p>The pop-up menu that appears when you right-click an object in the Form Designer has, as its first item: 'Create default event' and selecting this option will have the same effect as selecting the ellipsis in the Object Inspector for the default event, usually OnClick: you are taken to the Implementation area of the Source Editor where you can type the code for the event handler.</p>
<p>A common strategy in Object-Oriented programming is to provide an <link id="#lcl.ActnList.TActionList">ActionList</link> with the facility for entering, removing or editing a number of pre-defined actions from which the most appropriate can be selected to use in any particular instance.</p>
