11.8.5 Macro/CB task/Support Picture
COS, ACT: - Act.Type: Macro, CB task or support picture
- Text number from the macrotext catalogue, task num-
ber and task command, support picture type and, if
necessary, picture number.
- Colour, flashing mode
Picture Editor: - Draw graphic figure
- Connect with the updating channel.
The graphic figure takes over in the Picture window the
attributes defined in the COS dialogue for the colour (fore-
and background) and the flashing mode. An exception is
the "Button" figure, which retains its (grey) colour.
The updating colour sent compulsively by the DCS, covers
the entire connected graphic symbol. If this consists of
several colours in the static picture, or if it concerns a
combined figure (text, flag, entrance doors), a trick must
be used:
- Near the figure, draw an equally large back-up area
(of any colour).
- Connect the back-up area with the updating channel.
- Move the back-up area to the figure.
- Place the back-up area in the background.

alogue must (also) be updated.
