Hi again verbody. I asked this same question a few months ago, and there was a simple answer for it. However, I cannot remember that, and all the old posts have been deleted for some reason. Please tell me again this:

Let me simplify it:
I need to hide 6 different box one after another. I can create 6 different script with 1 action per script, or I can create 1 script with 6 different actions. When I choose to create 1 script with multiple actions, all the actions take action at the same time. If I choose to create 6 scripts, I cannot run more than one script per page.

Please tell me what to do.
Thanks in advance

I figured out: You can insert "Delay" actions between the actions. And you are all set to go!!

Hi, HeavyMetal,

correct. Actions in Interactive Designer fire at once, even in a script, there is no delay between them.

This way you can have many things happen simultaneously.

Should you need to have things wait for each other, in a serial fashion, then - as you state - you can use the "Delay" action (under the "Other" category).

You can either delay for a specific amount of seconds, wait for an object to be idle etc. Especially with the loop and while actions you can create quite powerful sequences.

P.S.: Have you updated to version 1.01 yet?

Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it.
