The "Do Nothing" Action lives up to its name. This action is created to make sure that no other actions are executed on the selection of a specific data source. When these items are clicked, nothing happens.<br />

<br />
<br />
# Follow the instructions above to create the Action in the <b>Widget Actions</b> panel.<br />
# <b>Name</b>: Enter a name for this Action. For convenience, a default name is provided. The Name is not used anywhere else in AppBoard, and only displayed on this configuration page.<br />

## Select "any" or "specific" for the type of data selection by the User that will trigger the Action. When selecting "specific", perform the following additional steps:<br />
### Click the <b>Filter</b> button. The <b>Filter Editor</b> is displayed.<br />
### Click <b>Add Rule</b> to create one or more rules that indicate what data should trigger the Action, when selected.<br />
### Click <b>Close</b> to save the Filter settings.<br />
## Select the Data Source name. When the Widget is run, selection of data in this Data Source will trigger the Action. <br />
# Click <b>Close</b> to exit.<br />

== Sample Use Case ==<br />
If the requirements for a Widget are that it should not do anything, the Board developer can apply this Action to indicate this requirement to future developers who may be working on this Board.</div>imported>Cmace
