Understanding the reference to other Coach Views in the events code

I am looking for documentation on what may be coded in an event handler.  For example … if we look at a Button Coach View, we see that it has an “On Click” handler.   How do I get reference to the objects representing other Coach Views on the page so that I may invoke their methods?  What might I code to refer to the Coach View instance itself upon which the event was actioned?

Is there some documentation that talks about the architecture of Spark event handler logic capabilities?

Hi Neil,

I always like to “work in 3’s” so here are 3 links that should help you on your way to answering your question:

1. The SPARK Controls One Page Reference – Literally every article, video, JSDoc entry, etc. will be added for a control to this page. If you were going to bookmark any SPARK page, that would be it!
2. The How-To Set of Articles for SPARK in our Knowledge Base – A great set of everything SPARK starter articles
3. The Control Addressing Article– that article will get you started on referencing between controls… hint ${Control_ID} is going to be your friend!

Hope that helps,

Matthew,

Perfect my friend.  I had failed to find that complete set of articles.  Now sitting down to study them in great depth.  I have confidence that they will answer the majority of my questions.  I greatly appreciate the pointer to them.
