# Perspective - Split Container Scripting

> This page details the various scripting, component, and extension functions available for [Perspective's Split Container](perspective-split-container.md) component.

## Component Events

The [Perspective Event Types Reference](appendix/reference-pages/perspective-event-types-reference.md) page describes all the possible component event types for Perspective components. Not all component events support each Perspective component. The [Component Events and Actions](ignition-modules/perspective/working-with-perspective-components/component-events-and-actions.md) page shows how to configure events and actions on a Perspective component. Component scripting is handled separately and can be accessed from the Component menubar or by right clicking on the component.

### onMinBoundReached
This event is fired when the split reaches the minimum bound on the container. For example, when the split bar's position reaches 0 px or 0% of the container's width.

:::note
This component event is designed to be used in tandem with a script runAction. Within the script action, special properties and methods are available on the **event** object, which is passed to the script action as a parameter.
:::

### onMaxBoundReached
This event is fired when the split reaches the maximum bound on the container. For example, when the split bar's position reaches 100% of the container's width.

:::note
This component event is designed to be used in tandem with a script runAction. Within the script action, special properties and methods are available on the **event** object, which is passed to the script action as a parameter.
