Connecting a Selection of Graphic Objects
Connecting the selection of graphic objects
Process D2000 GrEditor allows the user to set or modify connection parameters for several graphic objects (selection of graphic objects) at the same time.
The connection parameters for a selection of graphic objects are being configured in the palette Connect object - the tab Multiple change.
The palette contains the following tabs:
Multiple change
View
If the parameter is checked, all the parameters defined in the tabs View, Repaint and Dynamics will be used for the group of graphic objects (as well as you check all the parameters placed in the column below this parameter).
Objects
The parameter allows to define the parameter Connected object (tab View) for group of graphic objects.
Row
The parameter allows to define the parameter Row (tab View) for group of graphic objects.
Column
The parameter allows to define the parameter Column (tab View) for group of graphic objects.
Palette
The parameter allows to define the parameter Palette (tab View) for group of graphic objects.
Extended palette
The parameter allows to define the parameter Extended palette (tab View) for group of graphic objects.
Repaint
The parameter allows to define the repaint parameters (tab Repaint) for group of graphic objects.
Dynamics
The parameter allows to define the repaint parameters for dynamic view (tab Dynamics) for group of graphic objects.
Control
If the parameter is checked, all the parameters defined in the tabs Control will be used for group of graphic objects (as well as you check all the parameters placed in the column below the parameter, except the parameters Button down and Button up).
Button down
The parameter allows to set the parameter Button down (tab Control) for group of graphic objects.
Button up
The parameter allows to set the parameter Button up (tab Control) for all the graphic objects.
Objects
The parameter allows to define the parameter Connected object (tab Control) for group of graphic objects.
Row
The parameter allows to define the parameter Row (tab Control) for group of graphic objects.
Column
The parameter allows to define the parameter Column (tab Control) for group of graphic objects.
Parameters
The parameter allows to define some parameters (tab Control) for all the graphic objects in the group - e.g. Set directly, Open window, Set value, Position. The parameters Inherit instance and Instance can not be defined for all the graphic objects in the group.
Note: When you define the connection parameters for the group of graphic objects, only the applicable parameters for individual graphic objects will be used.
View
1, 2 | Allow to select an object (1) or a local variable (2), you want to connect to view |
3 | Selects a dynamic value of a local variable row. |
Column | Selection of a column of the local variable |
Index | Allows to choose a row of the local variable. |
For more information on connecting the object to view see the topic Connecting objects to view.
Palettes
1 | Enables to choose a display palette that will define displaying the object in process D2000 HI - optional parameter. |
2 | Selection of the extended display palette that will define some additional options of displaying the object in process D2000 HI (optional parameter; can be only specified for graphic objects of Text, Bitmap and Button type). |
3, 4 | Enables to select an object (3) or a local variable (4) which should be connected. |
Column | Selection of a column of the local variable. |
Index | Allows to choose a row of the local variable. |
5 | Allows to select a dynamic value of the local variable row. |
