Using the Dimensions of an Existing Picture

To use dimensions of an existing picture:

  1. In the iFIX WorkSpace, run the Create Picture Wizard and create a custom picture.
  2. Proceed through the wizard until you reach the Define Custom Picture page.
  3. Select the Use Dimensions of Existing Picture option to copy the dimensions from another picture.
  4. Click the Browse (...) button to browse existing .GRF files, beginning at your default iFIX pictures directory. If you enter a filename directly into the field, the filename is checked for existence and validity.

NOTE: The existing picture should be able to fit without scroll bars in the work area of the WorkSpace in configure mode. If the existing picture is larger than the work area of the WorkSpace in configure mode, the Create Picture wizard will create a new picture that is the size of the work area in configure mode, not the size of the existing picture in run mode.
