Navigation history is optional, and is configured for each client. To track displays, you
have to do the following:
 Activate the display navigation functionality using the FactoryTalk View SE Client.
 Specify what displays to track using the Properties tab in the Display Settings for each
display.
This provides flexibility in tracking only the displays you specify.
For additional details, click on Help in the FactoryTalk View SE Client wizard. See also
“Setting up the properties of a graphic display” on page 16-41.
How navigation buttons work
When the button is active, clicking it starts the corresponding action that is set on the
Navigation Button Properties dialog box. If the button is inactive, clicking it causes no
response.
Whether the button is active or inactive depends both on the configured action of the
button and the position of the current opened graphic display in the navigation history list.
For example, if the button is configured to show the next graphic display and the current
shown graphic display is the first one in the navigation history list, the button is inactive.
When the current shown graphic display is not the first one in the navigation history list,
the button is active.
Creating a navigation button
1. In the Graphics editor, select Objects > Push Button > Navigation, or click the
navigation button icon in the Objects toolbox.
