Wait

Indicates whether the event should be processed by the listeners before control is returned by the avSignal Event method. Allowable values are TRUE or FALSE. The default value is FALSE. Use TRUE with caution !     

To

Indicates the scope in which the event should be signaled. The default value FRAMEWORK indicates that every active command handler and filter in the Framework should be notified of this event. The other allowable value is BUSINESSOBJECT, which indicates that event should only be signaled within the current business object. If you use BUSINESSOBJECT in a non-business object context, then it is treated as if you had specified FRAMEWORK.    

WindowScope

 

When Framework windows have been opened by the ‘Open in a New Window…’ menu option, this parameter may be used to control the overall scope of the event being signaled.

CURRENT, which is the default value, indicates the event should only be signaled to applications belonging to the current window.

MAIN indicates the event should be signaled in the scope of the main window only.

ALL indicates that the event should be signaled into all active windows.

The only other allowable value is the name of a specific window.
