Multi Actions Option:
If the Multi Actions option is selected, clicking the '...' button will open the Multi Actions List dialog. By clicking the ‘+’ button the user can enter a list of actions of different types. The order of these actions can also be changed using the up and down arrows. These actions will be executed upon clicking the selected 3D geometry, and they can also be applied in 3D PDF templates.
Supported ways of applying the actions list are:
Loop; runs the action's list upon click in order, then from start again. That is action_1, 2,3 …, then 1, 2, 3.
Swing; runs the action's list upon click in order, then backwards again. That is action_1, 2,3 … then 3, 2, 1.
Random; runs the action's list upon click randomly.
Run All; runs the action's list upon click in order one time.
