Changing a cell

You can use the Change cell action to change the content (label, symbol) and the settings (visibility, selectability, draggability) of a cell. You can also enable the action of another cell to be performed. These actions can be useful for playing games and can be used to selectively hide certain content in the communication grids.

The Change cell action is added to a cell. The action is performed by clicking on the cell. The actual action is performed by another cell that has an ID.

In Edit mode, the ID (1) of the cell appears in the center of the cell.
