7.1.2 Object Configuration

You can configure library image objects with basic control features such as [Visible], [Blink], etc. To open the [Object Configuration] window, double-click or right-click the object and select [Object Config] in the pop-up menu.

This section only discusses the configuration for basic library objects (images). Wizard objects each have their own configuration window, which varies slightly based on the object’s functionality.

Item	Description
Name	Designate a name for the object. The name must contain at least one non-space character.
Type	Indicates the type of object. This field cannot be edited.
Style	Controls the object’s default size, position, line/fill style, and transparency.
Visible	Shows or hides the object based on a tag value.
Blink	Blinks in a predefined cycle based on a tag value.
V/H-Move	Moves the object vertically/horizontally based on a tag value.
Rotate	Rotates the object by an angle based on a tag value.
Touch	Executes a custom operation when the object is pressed or released.
EntryData	Inputs data with a data entry window when the object is pressed.

Wizard objects are grouped objects that provide self-contained tag functions. For example, a wizard object may display a gauge based on an analog value, or allow the user to select an option from a drop-down menu. Wizard objects each have their own object configuration window and generally cannot use custom control functions such as ‘Touch’, ‘Visible’, etc. To change the tags used by a wizard object, simply double-click the object and configure the options provided—there is no need to edit tag names and text separately for each object in the group. The wizard object shown below displays a green “ON” light when TAG1 is equal to 1 and displays an unlit “OFF” light when TAG1 is equal to 0.
