| active start time of | [ | Returns the time the action started. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| complete time of | [ | Returns the time the action completed. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| constrained of | [](Primitive Objects%5FAny.html#boolean)Plural: constraineds | Returns TRUE if action is unable to run yet. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
