process. For example, while the copier is copying, the
message display will read “Copying.”

Goto Screen buttons—This application screen contains buttons that
allow you to move between screens. It also includes a Multistate
Indicator that shows the currently displayed screen.
Goto Screen Buttons
Multistate Indicator
Object Function
Goto Screen Buttons (4) Each button is configured to call up a different screen on
the terminal. At runtime, when the operator presses a
button or its corresponding function key, the appropriate
screen appears, replacing the current screen.
Multistate Indicator (1) This object indicates to the operator that this screen is the
currently-selected screen and can’t be called up.
What You Will Need to Add
This screen contains all copying controls. Therefore you will need to
add the stapling feature here as well. Fortunately, the designer of the
existing application realized that this function would someday be
implemented. As you can see, a section of the screen has already
been designated for the stapling feature.
You will create a Control List without Enter Key object that lets the
operator choose whether or not the copies will be stapled. Chapter 6
provides step-by-step instructions for creating and configuring this
object.
