Action Master
Action Master is a ‘proof of concept’ action that allows users to control other actions from one single action interface. If you’ve completed a site using an action and have set the action’s parameters up exactly to how you want them only to have the client change his mind then this action may just save the day. Simply attach the action to the home page of your site, select the action you wish to target, and then select the control you want to change. Both the existing value will be displayed as well as blank field for the new value. Click the ‘Replace’ button to update the values in all found actions.

Actions Interface Experiment
I have been thinking about alternative Acton interfaces. I’ve dabbled with alternative interfaces for actions in the past. These require building an AppleScript application in XCode which handles the interface, and using polling (AppleScript) code in the Action itself to track a field and detect a chance. The change indicates whether the OK button has been clicked, and data can be retrieved. This is a fairly neat way of achieving the result, but there are drawbacks. The big drawback is that the interface is an application, and the user has to run it before the Action can. This is because of security issues and is to do with AppleScripts calling AppleScripts.

Caxton
This Action lets you create HTML text using embedded fonts rather than relying on plain old “web safe” offerings. It uses font kits supplied by www.fontsquirrel.com, or if you are legally allowed to, you can upload your own and have them converted there.
Cell BG Colour On Rollover
This is an action that can be used to style table cells background colour in Freeway Pro using onmouseover and onmouseout. Apply to each cell and then set the colour the cell background should change to on moving the cursor over and then for when moving the cursor out of the cell area.

Even though Freeway is code-free, often you will use it with traditional coding tools. Collected here are some Actions that can make it easier to interact with other environments.
