The access rights for a visualization element and their effect in online mode:
No Access Element will not be visible
Read Access Element will be visible but not operatable (no inputs allowed)
Full Access Element is not visible and not operatable
If you want to assign the access rights also to all other elements of the visualization
object, activate option Apply to all visual elements.
Note!
Please regard, that the access rights which are set for the visualization object in the
'Project''Object' 'Properties' dialog, are independent on those of the particular
visualization elements !
20.6.17 Programability
The properties of an visualization element can not only be defined by a static setting
or by a "normal" project variable, but also by the components of a structure variable,
which is exclusively used for programming visualization elements.
For this purpose the structure VisualObjectType is available in the library
SysLibVisu.lib. Its components can be used to define most of the element properties.
Note!
In case of multiple definition of a element property the value of the "normal"
project variables will overwrite that of the structure variable and both will
overwrite a static definition.
In order to configure the element properties by using a structure variable, do the
following:
• Open the configuration dialog, category 'Programmability' and enter a new,
unique (!) variable name in the field Object Name:. For this purpose you must
activate the option by a mouse-click in the checkbox. The variable automatically
will be declared with type VisualObjectType, a structure which is contained in the
library SysLibVisu.Lib. The declaration is done implicitely and not visible for the
user. Make sure that the library is included in the library manager.
• After the next compile the newly assigned structure variable will be available in
the project. (Hint: Activate the Intellisense functionality 'List components' in the
project options, category Editor, in order to get the structure components in a
selection list as soon as the variable name followed by a dot is entered).
