Creating Custom Runtime Displays

7–6

To select the viewport Type:

• Pick the Type box on the Define Viewport menu – picking the Type

box, you can select one of three settings – Text, Tool, and Graph.

Note: Once you have defined a string for a Text or Tool viewport, you

must use the Erase Port Data function in order to change the type of the

viewport to Graph. Similarly, once you have defined a variable for a

Graph viewport, you must use the Erase Port Data function in order to

change the type of the viewport to Text or Tool.

Using Pick & Place

To position the viewport on the monitor, and thus determine where it is

displayed on the screen during runtime, you use the Pick & Place function

(Pick & Place is disabled for Tool viewports; the Tool viewport “border” is

the same as the monitor screen border).

The procedure for positioning viewports is identical to that for placing

windows – with Pick & Place selected, handles appear on the viewport

border and center. As with windows, you pick and “drag” the handles to

reshape and reposition the viewport (refer to the window placement

procedures in the CVIM User’s Manual for more information). You can size

and position the viewport to create a full screen display, or you can create a

viewport covering only a particular portion of the screen.

To activate the Pick & Place function:

• Pick the Pick & Place box on the Define Viewport menu. With Pick &

Place selected, the “handles” appear on the viewport border.

Note: Because much of the viewport frame is initially hidden by the

pop–up menus, you will probably have to pick the menu removal icon (in

the upper right corner of the screen) to make the menus transparent or

invisible for the purpose of positioning the viewport.
