Chapter 7

Creating Custom Runtime Displays

7–16

Here are additional considerations when selecting string colors:

Override for String Color: The string color can be changed using the

change color codes or conditional color indicator within the string text,

each of which will override the color selected through the Color

Selection menu (see “Change Color Codes” and “Conditional

Color–coding” in Chapter 8).

Tool Viewport Colors: The Color Selection menu for Tool viewport

strings (not shown) contains only 4 items – Green, Yellow, Red, and

Clear; Tool strings can only be displayed in these colors.

Selecting Clear: If you select Clear for the string color, the string will

not appear in the runtime display – however, any text previously

displayed in the same location will be erased.

Using Pick & Place

To position the string within the viewport, and thus determine where it is

displayed on the screen during runtime, you can use the Pick & Place

function on the Define String menu (you can also use the draw line or plot

line codes within the text string to place the string contents – see “Draw Line

Codes” and “Plot Line Codes” in Chapter 8). The procedure for positioning

strings is similar to that for placing windows or gages – except that, with

Pick & Place selected, only one handle appears; you pick the handle to

reposition the string within the viewport.

Handle appears when

Pick & Place function is activated

To activate the Pick & Place function:

• Pick the Pick & Place box on the Define String menu; a small

rectangular “handle” appears in the middle of the string.

• Pick and “drag” the string handle to reposition the string (refer to the pick

& place procedures in the CVIM User’s Manual for more information).
