Datalogic Automation Inc. 4-12
To add a Control Panel to a Control Panel Application
1. Click the Add a Control Panel button.
2. Click the Select Design View button and select the Control Palette option so the Control Palette is dis-
played.
3. Add controls to the panel as desired. See “Add Controls to a Control Panel” on page 4-13 for more
details.
The following Control Panel properties, methods, and events are available.
Control Panel Display Size
When you create a Control Panel Application, the display size for all its Control Panels is automatically cal-
culated based on the screen resolution setting of your monitor. If you are planning to use the application on a
different system, you may change the default values so the Control Panels will display correctly. Test your
application on the target system to be sure it works.
NOTE: Since this setting also controls the Preview Pane size, if you place controls on a panel, then change
the display size, you may not be able to see the controls in full screen preview or run mode.
To change the Control Panel display size
1. Start CPM.
2. Click the Control Panel Application icon at the top of the control tree.
