Using functions

Translation:

The object can have, in addition to 3 palettes, up to 5 functions. In most cases, their names correspond to functions from the script. For example: PosX = %HI_SetPosX.

The functions take a single parameter: a D2000 object or a local variable that can be controlled by an expression.

Meaning: This solution does not burden communication with the script—it does not fill the queue of HI messages coming from the script and the kernel. As a result, it places a significantly lower load on the HI process.

Implemented functions:

Enable	The Enable function disables/enables access to the graphical object.	%HI_SetEnable
Visible	The Visible function hides/shows the graphical object.	%HI_SetVisible
PosX	The PosX function sets the X coordinate of the graphical object.	%HI_SetPosX
PosY	The PosY function sets the Y coordinate of the graphical object.	%HI_SetPosY
PosX+	The PosX+ function shifts (offsets) the X coordinate of the graphical object.	%HI_SetPosX (%HI_GetPosX+hodnota)
PosY+	The PosY+ function shifts (offsets) the Y coordinate of the graphical object.	%HI_SetPosY(%HI_GetPosY+hodnota)
SizeX	The SizeX function sets the width of the graphical object	%HI_SetSizeX
SizeY	The SizeY function sets the height of the graphical object	%HI_SetSizeY
DistX	The DistX function sets the distance from one point of the object to the next point along the X-axis.	%HI_SetDistX
DistY	The DistY function sets the distance from one point of the object to the next point along the Y-axis.	%HI_SetDistY
LineWidth	The LineWidth function sets the line thickness.	%HI_SetLineWidth
Text	The SetText function sets the text of the graphical object.	%HI_SetText
SetLineTerminator	The SetLineTerminator function sets the line termination style, including the termination of individual lines in a multi-line object.	%HI_SetLineTerminator
ForeColor	The ForeColor function sets the foreground color of the graphical object.	%HI_SetForeColor
BackColor	The BackColor function sets the background color of the graphical object.	%HI_SetBackColor
BackColor2	The BackColor2 function sets the secondary gradient color of the graphical object.	%HI_SetBackColor2
TextColor	The TextColor function sets the text color of the graphical object.	%HI_SetTextColor

Here is an example of a simple clock in a scheme with its center at **[100,100]**, implemented **without using a script**—the highlighted point moves simultaneously with the second hand.
