NOTE
Whenever you select an object, its position, in pixels, is indicated in
the message box at the bottom left of the screen. Left [x] and top [y]
indicate the position of the object’s top left corner relative to the top
left corner of the screen.
Sizing Objects
You can size all text objects (label, digital I/O text, field, and user
variable) directly by using the mouse and sizing handles which appear
on the selected object when it is in move mode. Click and drag the
handle corresponding to the dimension in which you want to increase or
decrease size.
NOTE
Whenever you select an object and keep the pointer (mouse) on it,
the object’s size is indicated in the message box at the bottom left
of the screen. Width [x] and height [y] are the object’s width and
height, in pixels.
Setting Object Properties
When you add or select an object on the Custom View screen, a
Properties table for that type of object appears. Modify the settings to
specify properties for the selected object. To refresh the Properties
tables, select Refresh Toolbars from the Tools menu. The following
subsections describe the Properties tables for each of the available
object types.
Form Properties
To display the Form Properties table, shown in Figure 10-5, click
anywhere on the workspace. Use the Form Properties table to set
properties that pertain to the custom overview screen as a whole.
