Flags
Window render flags allows the user to customize the look and features desired for each window.
Most of the flag names are self explanatory. For example, title will give you the title bar for the
window. Some times after the project is all setup, the user might decide that it’s best not to have a
title bar in a window and use that space instead for extra display.
The front most flag sets the window to be always in front of other windows. Typically, this can be
used for a window (on top/bottom/side area of the display), so that the information displayed in this
window is always visible.
The console switch flag allows the window to switch between consoles. Typically most windows
don’t have this flag set. Occasionally a few windows might have this set, so the information displayed
on that window is always present.
Name
The name of the window. The name must be unique. The name of the window must not have any
spaces. This allows the user to execute commands on a window name.
The name of the window can say a lot about a window if used properly. In the projects we set up, we
use the type of the window as the last characters of the window name. This allows us to determine
the type of the window just by looking at the name. For example, if we have a window to display
analog text data, we can name it “analogtxt”.
Number
This is the number of the window. The window number must be unique. This allows the user to
execute commands on a window number.
Done
This will close the window new dialog and create a new window.
This creates an empty window. The user can resize, move the window and close the M300 and save
the project. Once the displays are set up the window will look normal.
Cancel
This will close the window new dialog and do nothing.
