''''If statement''''
     −
This action allows to execute a set of subsequent actions according to specific condition(s).
+
''' If statement '''
 +
 
 +
The '''If''' statement is available form the ‘Add Action’ menu part ‘Conditions/Loops’ and comes along with a terminating '''End IF'''.
 +
 
 +
This action allows to execute a set of subsequent actions according to specific condition(s). The possible conditions are the same as constraints and are tested in exactly the same way, with logical connectors 'AND' (default one) or 'OR' in case of multiple conditions.
 +
 
 +
In case the condition is met and a number of subsequent actions should be executed while different actions should be executed if the condition was not met an '''Else''' statement has to be implemented.
 +
 
 +
''' Else statement '''
   −
The possible conditions are the same as constraints and are tested in exactly the same way, with logical connectors 'AND' (default one) or 'OR' in case of multiple conditions.
+
'''Else''' will only become available by selecting the '''If''' statement again and then selecting the ‘Add else clause’ from the ‘Set Variable’ menu.
−
If statement
+
In case further constrains should be invoked ‘Add else/If clause’ or ‘Add else/If confirmed clause’ can be used.
   −
The ‘If’ statement is available form the ‘Add Action’ menu part ‘Conditions/Loops’.
+
'''If''' statements my be nested that is within '''If''' and '''End If'''  there might be other pairs of '''If''' and '''End If'''.
−
An ‘If’ statement needs one or more conditions to be fulfilled to be activated and is
  −
terminated by ‘End If’. The code in between is only executed in case the condition is met.
  −
The possible conditions are the same as constrains and are tested in exactly the same way with
  −
logical connectors as ‘AND’ (default one) or ‘OR’.
  −
In case the condition is met and a number of subsequent actions should be executed while
  −
different actions should be executed if the condition was not met an ‘Else’ statement has to be
  −
implemented. ‘Else’ will only become available by selecting the ‘If’ statement again and
  −
select ‘Add else clause’ from the ‘Set Variable’ menu.
  −
In case further constrains should be invoked ‘Add else/If clause’ or ‘Add else/If confirmed
  −
clause’ can be used.
  −
‘If’ statements my be nested that is within ‘If’ and ‘End If ‘ there might be other pairs of ‘If’
  −
and ‘End If ‘.
     −
Files
  −
The available file handling is self explanatory. However care should be given to the fact that
  −
especially write commands will need some time before the action is concluded. It may be a
  −
good idea to place a subsequent ‘Wait’ statement before trying to read what was written.
