The action definition file has been
moved or deleted. The action can be
removed from the display via the Display
Wizard’s Action Selection page.
When the builder accesses the Action Selection page, the renamed action is shown in the Available Actions area. The builder can either save the view without the action or move the renamed action to the Selected Actions area and then save the view.
