The Objects
Chapter 10

The Object menu, shown above, allows you to configure the Object List.
IMPORTANT: The Object Menus for the three types of Object Lists
contain many identical menus and functions. In the following section, we
outline these functions and point out any differences between the types of
Object Lists. For more detailed information on Object Menus and their
functions, please see the appropriate section in Chapter 3, Using
PanelBuilder.
List
The List menu is present in all three Object List types.
Choose Move to move and position the Object List on the screen. The
default vertical position is the same as the vertical position defined for
the Cursor List object. If possible, try to keep each Object List aligned
with the Cursor List component.
Choose Border to configure the border type for the Object List.
For color terminals you can choose the foreground and background
colors. For monochrome terminals you can choose between Reverse and
High Intensity.
Choose Width to change the width of the Object List. The number you
enter determines the size of the objects to be displayed in the list. The
minimum width should be the longest state string defined for the Object
List.
For Numeric Display Data Object Lists, the minimum width depends on
the Number of Digits that you specified for the Numeric Displays, and
whether you chose a Numeric Data Display with Decimal Point and/or
Polarity Object List.
Choose Highlight Bar if you want to enable the highlight bar for the
Object List. If you enable the Highlight Bar, the current state controlled
by the Cursor Control Address or the cursor buttons is highlighted in
reverse video.
Choose Number of Visible States to define the number of list objects that
will appear in the visible region of the Object List on the screen. In
other words, this option lets you define the number of objects that the
operator will be able to see in the list.
The default is the Number of Visible States you defined for the Cursor
List object. The valid range is 1 to 24.
