How Control Builder uses windows
The Control Builder uses two program window types during the creation, editing, and saving of Function
Block diagrams. These windows are:
• Tree View — a window within the Control Builder application frame that displays a tree representation
of function block types.
• Function Block Diagram — Control Builder provides a workspace where the function block diagram
will be created. A view window within the Control Builder application frame allows you to configure the
details of the function blocks selected from the list of function blocks in the tree view.
Multiple Function Block Diagrams can be opened at any given time within the control builder, but only
one view of each diagram is allowed.
Scroll Bars at the right side and bottom of the window lets you navigate from top to bottom of the window
and from one page to another.
