Scripts that can be written in the studio can be largely classified into scripts related to the entire localmain program, scripts related to graphics modules, and scripts for each graphic element, but each type of editor is slightly differnt.
Scripts related to the entire localmain program
If 'File|Script' from the main menu, module editor or reporter editor is selected, a sub-menu as shown in <Figure 1> appears.

The editor execution of the script related to the entire localmain program is executed by selecting the menu in <Figure 1>.
At Program Start... : The script that runs once the localmain program starts.
At Program Running... : The script that runs every scantime
At Program End... : The script that runs once the localmain program ends.
Key Script... : The script that runs when a user presses a particular key.
Menu Script... : The script for using the user menu MENU_SCRIPT_000 to MENU_SCRIPT_999.
Log In Script... : The script that runs once user login.
Before Log Out Script... : The script that runs once before user logout.
After Log Out Script... : The script that runs once after user logout.
Script related to graphics modules
If ‘Etc’ is selected when the studio is in the module editor, a menu as shown in <Figure 2> appears.
'Script on Module Opened/Closed' in <Figure 2> is a script executed (once) when the current graphic module is opened or closed, and 'Script on Module Running' is a script executed while monitoring the graphic module.
In addition, 'Script on Module Activated/Deactivated' is a script executed when the module is activated/deactivated.
Here, activation is when there is a focus (mouse selection state) of the window, and when there is no focus, it is in an deactivate state.

Write an external file or built-in script in the 'Object|Button|Script Button' dialog box in the module editor.
Scripts for each graphic element
Most graphic element settings dialogs have extensions tabs, which allow you to create scripts.
Script is also available on the MouseResponse tab of analog/digital related graphic elements.
