How to tell apart ready:form-event and ready:layout-event

[ulibaehr]

Hi,

I would like to call the same function in a script object from different events.

As I cannot make layout changes in the ready:layout event I would like to find out in the function: Which event called me?

event.name gives me the event name nicely for most events. (Although the returned strings are somewhat peculiar....)

But: The ready:layout-event as well as the ready:form-event both give me "Open".

Therefore I would like to know:

How can a function tell whether it was called from ready:layout or from ready:form?

I suppose there is a much simpler solution, than trying "event.name".

Hi Ulrich,

Check out event.activity in LC Designer help. This gives a closer description of the event fired, eg 'docReady' instead of 'open'.

Good luck,

Niall
