Click on the Page or root object in the hierarchy view and in the script editor the events dropdown will show you the subset of events that are available. If there is code on these events they will be marked with an *

Not sure what you mean - are you looking for prebuilt scripts?

Thanks that is very helpful. I'm new to Designer and I do most of this stuff in Acrobat directly, using the form tools.  I built a bunch of scripts that do this:

open a bunch of files in batch process,

put filename into global array

then in a separate document I push a button that generates check boxes using the filenames that were put into the array from the opened files.

Would this be any easier in designer?
