Action GUI building blocks

ManiVault Studio provides a set of action GUI building blocks – modular UI components (built on Qt widgets) that plugin developers use to create interactive controls in their plugins 1. These “actions” encapsulate common GUI elements (text fields, sliders, toggles, etc.) along with built-in behaviors for state management and inter-plugin communication. In this guide, we’ll cover what these action blocks are, their purpose in ManiVault, how to customize their behavior and appearance, and how to extend them for new functionality.
