Class: DeferredSection

DeferredSection

The Deferred Section is used to allow lazy loading, which can contribute to efficiency in a Coaches operation since images outside of viewport are not loaded until the user scrolls to them. A DeferredSection control provides the following configuration properties in Process Designer:
Lazy-load automatically: loaded automatically after the specified delay has passed boolean
Delay for auto-loading: How long to wait (in milliseconds) before loading this section integer

Events
OnLazyLoad:
Description: This event is triggered when lazy load is done.
Example: 
alert("Lazy load complete")
