Create a Goto Config
Screen Button

This section applies to touch screen only terminals. If you are creating
the sample application for a keypad terminal, skip this section.

To allow an operator access to the touch screen only terminal’s
configuration mode menu, a Goto Config Screen button is required.

1. Select Objects>Screen Selectors>Goto Config Screen.

2. Position the pointer (+) to the left of the screen button on each

screen.
Hold down the left mouse button and drag to draw the object.

3. Select Format>Toggle Fore/Background to reverse the object

colors.

TIP

An asterisk (*) appears if the text box is too small for the
text. Select the object and then drag a handle to size the
text box until the text fits.

IMPORTANT

Select Arrange>Bring Dynamic Objects to Front to move control
objects to the front of other objects. This makes sure control
objects are not covered by static objects such as text.
