Todd Dice (Customer) asked a question.

Missing description of checkbox of multi-state indicator in help file Cmore EA9 V6.7

So, what does "lock" mean?

 

Edit: on another note, I wish the indicator went above 255 states (32-bit would have been handy) AND list them with a state number independent of trigger value. In this case, my trigger values start at 809775425, the next at 80977544, etc. so the "simulate" doesn't really work well in this application.

    Hi @Todd Dice (Customer)​,

    Lock - Select this checkbox to prevent the object's position or size from being changed accidentally. 

    This can be seen and controlled on the ...

    Object Layer List.

    C-more LockProperty List.

    C-more Lock2This Lock came out in version 6.00:

    • New Object Layer Tool allows you to lock/unlock, hide/unhide objects or quickly select them for

    editing

    a. The Object Layer List also allows you to access individual objects in a group without

    ungrouping and has additional lists for hidden, locked, or overlapping objects Bug Fix

     

    Regards,

    Guessing that this can be addressed as two 16 bit words can the trigger possibly be the second of two words?

    I quit using them to show messages as it was a pain trying to keep them in sync with PLC with the way my programs were, plus anything I can do outside of C-More seems to speed up development time.

     

    The only thing I use them for is colored boxes with each number representing a color. PLC triggers the color and the string to display as a dynamic text object on top of the colored box.

     

    Might not work for your setup, just another option.
