135 Scrolling Lists
Publication 2711E-6.15 – November 1998
An Object List consists of a list of objects of the same type. The
Object Lists and the Cursor List together make up the Scrolling List.
You can create any number of Object Lists for each screen, as long
as there is sufficient space on the screen.
Although you define the Cursor List and Object List components
separately, they are in fact components of a single Scrolling List
object.
An object list can have up to 24 visible states. Each visible state
constitutes one object. You cannot configure individual visible states;
the configuration applies to all objects in the list.
The number of items in each object list is determined by the Number
of Visible States specified in the Cursor List. You can choose from
three types of Object Lists:
•
Multistate Indicator Object List—This Object List consists of
individual Multistate Indicator objects.
The Multistate Indicator objects can have up to 255 different
states. You can define only one set of state labels per Multistate
Object List.
•
Local Message Object List—This Object List is a list of
individual Local Message Display objects.
•
Numeric Data Display Object List—This Object List is a list of
individual Numeric Data Display objects.
You can define only one type of numeric display for each
Numeric Data Display Object List.
The following illustration shows a sample Scrolling List object,
consisting of a cursor list and two object lists. The number of visible
states is the same for all three lists.
