SelectingActiveArea |
A UserSignifiedAction informing a ComputerProgram that the current GUIElement with the state GUE_ActiveState is selected. This causes the program controlling the element to take the action that selecting the element is mapped to. After the action has been initiated, unless the action causes a different element to become active or changes the state of the element, the element reverts to GUE_ActiveState. Selecting an ActiveArea_Submitting causes a SubmitAction (of the type associated with the active area) to take place. What is actually submitted may depend upon the state of associated active areas. However, if the active area is a HypertextLink, MenuItem, or dedicated GUIButton the submission may not be state dependent. An off-screen element on an active window can be selected by keyboard action: tabbing to it to make it active and typing the Enter/Return key.
