After installing VisiconX, the iFIX WorkSpace includes a new toolbar, VisiconX, with four buttons:
VisiconX Toolbar
In Classic view, use these toolbar buttons to insert VisiconX controls into your picture. In Ribbon view, you may access the VisiconX controls from the Ribbon, on the Insert tab, in the VisiconX group.
The control appears in the picture, with handles that you can grab to move and size the control as you would with any picture object.
For more information about moving and sizing picture objects, see the iFIX Creating Pictures e-book.
If the VisiconX toolbar is not visible in the WorkSpace, it either needs to be imported or it needs to be selected from the list of available toolbars to display.
After inserting VisiconX controls into your picture, they appear as objects in the WorkSpace system tree. The following table displays the naming conventions used for each object. In this naming convention, n is an integer, starting with 1, which is automatically incremented for each new occurrence of an object type.
