The Objects
Chapter 10

To draw an arc:
1. Choose Text/Draw from the list of objects and then Arc. The menu
across the top of the screen changes to the Object menu; at the bottom
the object is identified as an Arc.
2. Choose Move and Size to move the object or to set its size to
Smallest, Small, Large or Largest.
3. Choose Look to enable or disable any of the quadrants. When the arc
is first created, all quadrants are enabled. The Look menu also
contains the color, blink, reverse video and high intensity settings.
4. Choose Utility to name the arc or to set it as a default.
You can include any of the ISA Industrial Symbols in your screen by
opening the Add menu and choosing Symbol. Then, choose Symbol Type
from the Look menu and select the symbol of your choice. The symbol can
be single or double size.
If a symbol’s connection points are not at the center of a character cell, or
if the symbol is double size, you will need to use the connectors.
Connector characters connect a line to one of the 32 symbols. Lines are
drawn through the center of the character cell while the connectors for the
symbols may be at one edge of the character cell. To have the line meet up
perfectly with the symbol you’ll need one of the connectors. (See the
section on Lines earlier in this chapter for information on how to choose
connector points.)
IMPORTANT: The symbol you choose will appear on the PanelBuilder
screen as a box. The actual symbol will be displayed on the PanelView
terminal screen.
The following illustration shows the ISA symbols. The precise screen
appearance of the ISA symbols can be found in Appendix D, ISA Symbols.
