deselect

The low level event deselect may occur for components of the types Drop Down List, Check Box, Radio Button, Combo Box, List Box, Long List Box and Drop Combo Box.

The event deselect occurs when one of the active choices for an object is deselected.

For a Radio Button component, the low level event deselect is followed by the high level event Push.

For a Check Box component, the low level event deselect is followed by the high-level event Check.

For Drop-Down List, List Box and Long List components, the low level event deselect is followed by the high level event Choose.

For a Combo Box component, the low level event deselect occurs when another choice is selected, or when the choice text is edited directly.

In MWAPI, this event is called "DESELECT".

Note: The high level events Check, Choose, Push and Scroll are triggered both after a deselect and after a select event. In general, it is easier to attach event-handling code to either of these low-level events, than to have to find out in the action logic of the corresponding high level events whether a selection or a deselection occurred.
