Hi, I just want to know how can I read tag.value from a Configure [On click Actions] script.  
I'm trying some functions but I'm not sure which one is the right one.  
Please, check the printscreen attached  
Could you type a sample here?  
Regards,  
Leandro

The manual is fairly clear. Note that for this function you need to supply the tag paths as a **list**.  
Create the list of tags and then call them all in one go. It's much more efficient.

You should probably be using the `onActionPerformed` event. There's a slight difference. For example, the `onClick` event is triggered even if the component is disabled.

Also please provide your script as a formatted snippet in the future - never a screenshot. Troubleshooting an image should your script need changes never works well.
