Select Graphic Image

To change the bitmap, choose Select Graphic Image from the
Configure Symbol dialog box. The Select Symbol dialog box
appears, with all the graphic image library’s bitmaps listed.
Choose the graphic image you want to use, or import it. You can
select monochrome bitmaps only.

Control

Symbol State determines which state is shown. You can assign
a tag or expression to this control.

Important: If a value that has not been assigned to any of the
states is written to the control, or if no control is defined, an
error state occurs and the highest numbered state is displayed
without the image. This will cause the Symbol object to
disappear.

You can format the Symbol’s foreground color, background color,
border style, fill style, and blink attributes. The fill and border style
you assign apply to every state, but you can configure individual
colors and blink attributes for each state. For details on formatting
objects see “Changing Object Appearance” in Chapter 9, Creating
Objects
, in the PanelBuilder 1400e Configuration Software for
Windows User Manual
