Custom Functions

All of these blox allow multiple blox to be added to any of these system area sections.  When more than one blox is added to any of these script sections the name order of the blox will be sorted in alphabetical order.  This is an important point to remember because the order in which each blox is listed in the system section area is the order in which script sections with the same name are executed.

 

To change the order in which the script sections with similar names is executed, you must change the name of the blox so that it will be placed in a different position after it is sorted.

 

Blox Script Sequencing:

When more than one blox name is shown in a blox type area, the blox names will alphabetically be listed when the system editor is closed using the "OK" button, and then viewed again.  Scripts in all the blox area use the sorted blox names to determine which script that is common to more than one blox is executed.
