Action Grouping
Iotellect supports grouping of actions. Action grouping is the aggregated execution of the same action from several contexts.
Some types of actions change their behaviour drastically when launched in a grouped mode. For example, when Configure action is grouped for several contexts, properties are being read from the first context in the group, but changed settings are written to all contexts in the group, allowing to configure multiple objects at the same time.
Other actions support grouping at the level of UI Procedures. For example, when the Call Function Action is invoked for a group of contexts, it allows the user to apply one confirmation to all actions in the group (i.e, the user has to confirm only once). The input parameters for the function being called can be also provided once for all actions. A single window is then used to provide feedback from the execution of all actions, rather than a separate popup for every action.
