Setting a Pushbutton Property
The steps below describe how to set a Pushbutton property in your picture.
To set the Pushbutton property of
a bitmap:
- From the iFIX WorkSpace, in Ribbon view, on the Insert tab, in the Objects/Links group, click Objects/Links and then click Bitmap.
- Or -
In Classic view, on the Insert menu, click Bitmap to insert a bitmap into your iFIX picture.
- Right-click the bitmap and select Button Styles, PushButton from the pop-up menu. A 3D effect will appear around the bitmap to give it the appearance of a button.
- Optionally, you can configure a second bitmap to be displayed when the button is depressed. To do this, right-click the bitmap and select Load Image, Secondary. You can also configure a ToolTip by entering the desired text for the ToolTip into the Description property of the bitmap and setting the EnableTooltips property to TRUE.
The top toolbar is actually a separate picture with no titlebar. Clicking a button in this area changes focus and changes what is known in VBA as the ActiveDocument. To be sure that the correct picture is operated on when you click the toolbar button, you should first set the active document.
