7.16.1 Edit Dialog Buttons

At the bottom of the Edit Dialog is a row of buttons which have actions pertaining to the Edit Dialog's fields. Some of the buttons may be appropriately inactive due the state of the edit dialog. They will become active when their action is applicable. The following buttons will be available:

Ok
The Ok button stores the information in the dialog's fields in the object's fields and closes the dialog window.
Apply
The Apply button stores the information in the dialogs fields but does not close the window. If the apply button is highlighted the edit dialog may contain changes which have not been applied yet. The apply action can also be generated by pressing the Return key in the body of the editor, unless the editor has multiple field editors within it (see section 7.6.1 Member Fields).
Revert
The Revert button reloads the information from the object into the dialog's fields, clearing any changes the user might have made. If the revert button is highlighted the object's fields might have been changed "behind the scenes" by another part of the program in which case the information displayed in the edit dialog may be outdated. The revert action can also be generated by pressing the Escape key in the body of the editor.
Cancel
The Cancel button dismisses the dialog without applying the user's changes.
Other Member Buttons
Some objects will add an additional row of member buttons to the Edit Dialog.(e.g., The Process object adds a row of Run,Step,Init buttons). These buttons perform additional actions on the object.
