Automatic action views

Action views can be rendered automatically in some form elements.

Form toolbars and topmenu elements can define specific items, to get automatic rendering of action views, for actions that exist for the current dialog.

In a TOOLBAR definition, add an AUTOITEMS (CONTENT=ACTIONS) element in the definition:
TOOLBAR
  ...
  AUTOITEMS (CONTENT=ACTIONS)
  ...
END
In a TOPMENU definition, add an AUTOCOMMANDS (CONTENT=ACTIONS) element in the definition:
TOPMENU
  ...
  GROUP actions (TEXT="Actions")
      AUTOCOMMANDS (CONTENT=ACTIONS)
  END
  ...
END
Additionally, CONTENT=WINDOWS or CONTENT=PROGRAMS options can be used, to respectively get the list of current available windows, or the current running applications. The end user can then switch between windows and applications from these options:
TOPMENU
  ...
  GROUP windows (TEXT="Windows")
    AUTOCOMMANDS (CONTENT=WINDOWS)
  END
  GROUP programs (TEXT="Programs")
    AUTOCOMMANDS (CONTENT=PROGRAMS)
  END
  ...
END
