Tip

Displays are components of the application that serve as an interface between the user and the monitored process. Each screen can be formed by multiple static or dynamic parts (or screensDisplays). One Layout defines the size of the application window and the basic arrangement of visualization components.

Screen

Displays Selection and Creation

However Action.NET the main window of the application screen Display is defined by an object named Layout. One Layout defines the size of the application window and the basic arrangement of preview components (Screens Displays and Screen Display parts) in the application in real time. See "Layout Creation".


A screen Display can contain multiple visualization and command elements, including controls, data screen Display areas, static areas, and other objects. These components or screens Displays can be static, that is, they are always displayed, such as a menu bar, toolbar, or status bar. Components can also be swapped dynamically, depending on what the user clicks or selects.

The parameters in DisplaySettings define, the attributes of the screenDisplay. Screens Displays can be configured as PopUps, Dialogs, or Normal ScreensDisplays. The dimensions of the screen Display when created follow what is defined in Info>Settings.
