Submit Form Interaction
The submit form interaction can be assigned to a button that resides inside of a form in order to successfully post the forms field data to the server for processing.
File Download Interaction
The file download interaction lets you set a file that will be automatically downloaded when a visitor clicks the item. You can also quickly create file download buttons by simply dragging files such as ZIPs or PDF’s from Finder onto the Blocs design canvas.
Toggle Visibility
When an item is clicked that has the toggle visibility interaction assigned to it, it will toggle the visibility of objects with specific ID’s. The interactions target ID’s can be entered into the text field labelled Target ID’s, in single format or as a comma separated array. If a target ID item is visible, it will become hidden or if it’s hidden, it will become visible.
The Toggle Visibility interaction can be used in conjunction with the visibility setting for hiding objects on load.
