The DesignerAction enumeration provides a comprehensive list of actions that can be performed by the user or programmatically within the ActiveReports designer. These actions cover a wide range of functionalities, including file operations, editing, formatting, alignment, and more, to facilitate a rich design experience.

Actions include operations like opening and saving files, cutting, copying, pasting, undoing, redoing, and deleting elements, as well as more specific design tasks such as aligning objects, setting font properties, managing borders, and working with data sources.

This enumeration allows for the implementation of a dynamic and user-friendly interface in the ActiveReports designer, enabling users to efficiently create and modify reports.
