Six out of the 22 FX event triggers can be accessed from within the Action menu.

These actions are linked with the following triggers:

• Custom -> Custom_FX

• Restore saves -> Restore_Save

• Edit -> Edit_Project

• Duplicate -> Duplicate_Project

• Delete -> Delete_Project

There is one additional trigger that can be indirectly accessed from within the 'Add Project' dialog box when creating a new project from an imported project file.

HelmutFX Trigger

Adobe driven trigger

If the state of an Adobe project changes, certain triggers will be executed. These triggers are associated with the following triggers:

• Premiere Pro: Open a project -> Open_Project (depending on PR configuration)

• Close a project -> Unlock_Project

Helmut4 Client driven

When a user logs into the website and a Helmut4 client with the correct version is running, it will trigger the Connected event. Logging out from the website will trigger the Disconnected trigger instead.
