InheritanceAddItemAction Inheritance Effect Inheritance EventDispatcher Inheritance Object

The AddItemAction class defines an action effect that determines when the item renderer appears in the control for an item being added to a list-based control, such as List or TileList, or for an item that replaces an existing item in the control. You can use this class as part of defining custom data effect for the list-based classes.
