Figure 231 Switches and Alarms Combined
Aligning Objects in the Operator Interface
In the panel view, the grid is displayed by default. You can
turn the grid off by toggling the PanelDrawGrid property to
False. There is also an automatic “snap- to- grid” feature to
help align objects. You can display the grid and change the
PanelGridSize property from 10 to 1 (10 is the default) to
make very accurate alignments, as shown in Figure 232. You
can use this feature to give the program a professional look.
The “snap- to- grid” feature is located in the Panel folder
under the Properties selection of the UserObject or
UserFunction menu. (Remember, you must have created a
panel view for the Panel folder selection to display in the
dialog box.)
