Behavior Manager panel
======================

The Behavior Manager panel basically enables you to **install, uninstall, play and stop behaviors** on the robot you are connected to.

.. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager.png

The first column corresponds to the **list of the installed behaviors**.

.. note::
   You may have noticed that a behavior named **animation mode** is already installed on real robots which software version is equal to or higher than 1.12.
   It is a **read-only** behavior that you cannot delete or replace as it is a functionality needed by Choregraphe.
   If you want more information about this behavior go to section: :ref:`How to use the animation mode <choregraphe-howto-use-animation-mode>`.

The second column represents the **execution status of each behavior**:

.. list-table::
   :widths: 10 100
   :header-rows: 1

   * - Button
     - Function
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_play_one.png
     - The behavior is **not running** and can be played by clicking on this button.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_loading.png
     - The behavior is **loading**.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_stop_one.png
     - The behavior is **running** and can be stopped by clicking on this button.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_unloading.png
     - The behavior is **unloading**.

The third column enables you to set a behavior as default.
A default behavior is a behavior which is automatically played at NAO startup.

Here for example you can see that a behavior named ``hello`` is set to default.
This behavior makes NAO say hello and move his arm.
So each time NAO is switched on, he says hello with a movement of his arm.

.. list-table::
   :widths: 10 100
   :header-rows: 1

   * - Button
     - Function
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_add_current.png
     - **Install** the current opened behavior on your robot.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_add_from_file.png
     - **Install** a behavior from your computer on your robot.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_open.png
     - **Open** the behavior selected in the list of installed behaviors in Choregraphe.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_save.png
     - **Export** the behavior selected in the list of installed behaviors from your robot to your computer.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_delete.png
     - **Uninstall** the behavior selected in the list of installed behaviors.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_stop_all.png
     - **Stop all behaviors** that are currently running on the robot.
       It is useful if you have executed a behavior at startup for example and you do not have control over it.

       .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_loading.png

       .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_stop_one.png

       .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_unloading.png
     - **Play** or **stop** each behavior.
       This button also represents the execution status of each behavior.
       It can be:

       * A green triangle: the behavior is not running and can be played by clicking on this button.
       * A grey triangle: the behavior is loading.
       * A red square: the behavior is running and can be stopped by clicking on this button.
       * A grey square: the behavior is unloading.
   * - .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_default_not_checked.png

       .. image:: /medias/desktop/choregraphe/behavior_manager_default_checked.png
     - This checkbox enables you to **set** each behavior **as default**.
       It can be:

       * Not checked: the behavior is not set as default.
       * Checked: the behavior is set as default.
         It will then be automatically executed at NAO startup.

.. note::
  Name a behavior **.default** to set it automatically as default behavior.

.. warning::
  You can play and set as default several behaviors simultaneously.
  But the behaviors needs to be compatible.
  For example a behavior making NAO sit down and another making him walk are not compatible.
  Please set the :ref:`resources <choregraphe-reference-box-resource>` of your boxes to avoid conflicts between simultaneous behaviors (see :ref:`How to set resources of a box <choregraphe-howto-set-resources-for-box>`).
