buttonSetAction and buttonAction

[RujiK]

Lately I've simply been using the addaction command for certain actions I wish too be used.
However, recently I discovered the buttonSetAction and buttonAction commands and thought that this would be a much more efficent way of doing things.

Sadly, however, I have been unable too use this command for I cannot find its proper usage. What I wish for this too do is Buttonaction == ["Enter","script.sqs"] however this obviosly does not work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and please dont just say "Stick with addaction, much better"

i think those commands are for use with dialogs rather than ordinary in game stuff.

From the Official ComRef:

buttonAction idc
Operand types:
    idc: Number
Compatibility:
    Version 1.5 required.
Type of returned value:
    String
Description:
    Return action assigned to control with id idc of topmost user dialog. Action is any expression in this scripting language. Can be used for buttons and active texts.

Example:
    _action = buttonAction 100

---

buttonSetAction [idc, action]
Operand types:
    [idc, action]: Array
Compatibility:
    Version 1.5 required.
Type of returned value:
    Nothing
Description:
    Assign action to control with id idc of topmost user dialog. Action is any expression in this scripting language. Can be used for buttons and active texts.

Example:
    buttonSetAction [100, "player exec ""reply.sqs"""]

Means that these commands are for use in/with dialogs only, they're not related to user actions at all.
