Custom Events

The Exceptions dialog box, which opens from the Exceptions property, contains an Add Custom Event button. The figure below shows the Exceptions dialog box for the Entry block.

Adding a Custom Event

To add a custom event:

1. In the Exceptions dialog box, click Add Custom Event.
2. In the resulting dialog box, name the event and click OK. The event name appears in the Supported column.
3. When through in the dialog box, click OK.
4. Once a custom event is added to the list of exceptions in a block, you will see an exception port for this event (or exception) on the block, which you can now connect to another block to handle that special condition.
