When creating message displays:
• Messages should not cover control objects when displayed.
• Message displays support up to 2,000 messages (numbered 0 to
1999).
• Create message displays with the exact number of messages
required by the application. Don’t create blank messages.
• Message text is formatted and edited like other objects with inner
text.
• Message displays include an error state (State E) to notify the
operator when an error occurs while triggering a message.
• If screen space is limited, create a Print Only object. When
messages are triggered, they are printed rather than displayed on
the screen.
