As you develop a system of operator displays, you may want to use an object you created for one picture in several other pictures. iFIX offers a convenient way to save custom-built objects and application scripts into a higher-level reusable object set, called Dynamo objects. Dynamo objects allow you to customize your pictures by creating a consistent design across your operator displays.
iFIX provides a wide selection of pre-built Dynamos that use the most common shapes and objects in the process automation industry today. You can also build and save your own Dynamos in the WorkSpace using the Build Dynamo Wizard, and then dragging the new Dynamo into a set for use in other pictures. Using existing Dynamo Sets can expedite your picture development, thereby increasing the performance of your entire operation.
For more information on Dynamo objects, refer to Working with Dynamo Objects chapter.
