Any feedback from others?
Been playing with the sample program on Page 36 & noticed a few unusual things.
I lost the Caption "Pump Control"; Line 25.
Could not see why this had happened; no changes to that part of the code.
It just wasn't there, but have a feeling it was hidden as a result of yesterdays playing at the prompt.
Tracing backwards, I'd gone to the prompt & issued the following commands.
Font 1
Text,0,0,"Font 1"
Font 2, etc, etc.
Was just looking at the fonts on the screen.
Last one was Font 6, & I think this somehow remained, hiding any future text.
When I ran the code again the Caption was missing;
Checked it, & reloaded it numerous times, but there was no way I could get it to display.
Tried heaps of things at the command prompt,
CLS; Gui Enable All; Gui Show All,
And repeating as above reloaded the code numerous times.
Finally hit the reset on the E64 & it was immediately back to normal.
The other thing I'd like to hear comments on is the "Switch" object.
It's display behaviour seems inverted.
Line 30:[Code]GUI Switch sw_pmp, "On|Off", 20, 90, 150, 50, RGB(white),RGB(Brown)
CtrlVal(sw_pmp) = 1
[/code]
Which side is highlighted seems wrong.
In the On position, Off is highlighted, On Dimmed & so no when off.
Also if you change that line,
[Code]GUI Switch sw_pmp, "On|Off",......[/code]
to
[Code]GUI Switch sw_pmp, "Pump",......[/code]
It behaves like an illuminated switch which is lit up in the off position, but not illuminated in the on position.
Cheers
