The active property indicates whether an activity can still be executed during this rotation. After an activity is executed, the active flag is set to false, and the next active (and enabled) activity is selected. At the end of a rotation, the active flag of all activities of the programme are set back to true. By changing the value of active, activities can be either removed from the current rotation, or re-enabled.

  //re-enable the 'todo' activity.
                      stand.activity("todo").active = true;

An activity can only be executed, if the enabled property is true. Activities can be switched on/ off using this flag.

Note that an activity needs also to be active in order to get executed.

  // switch off a repeating activity, when a height threshold is surpassed.
                      if (stand.hmean>12)
                          stand.activity('repeater').enabled = false;

This flag indicates whether the Scheduler is used when this activity is run, i.e. if the exact date of execution is selected by the scheduling algorithm of ABE. The default value depends on the type of the activity, e.g., default is false for activities of type general, but true for scheduled activities.
