Hi Curtis,

If you want to trigger Qactions all you have to do is set parameter to 1 like so:
ele[0].SetParameter(20100, 1); // Trigger Button

or the event trigger that when a ui button is pressed to do a certain action would be so:

dialog.NextButton.Pressed += (sender, e) => Button_Pressed(sender, e, dialog);

public void Button_Pressed(object sender, EventArgs e, HelloWorldDialog dialog)
{
//Some Actions
}

Hope this helps.

Sorry only seen now that you want it for UI blocks but the anwser I gave was for Widgets.

Here is the link to where it explains it in the Docs with an example:

Thank you Amer, I also have another question. How do I get the result from a checkbox list option,

Amer Hodzic [DevOps Member] commented 7th September 2023

For UI blocks you will find it here:
https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/api/types/Skyline.DataMiner.Automation.UIResults.GetChecked.html

For widgets:
IEnumerable test = dialog.CheckBoxList.Checked;
