Script command to flash an object.

Hi jkur,

here an example:

Dim Object_1
Set Object_1 = HmiRuntime.Screens("Screen_1").ScreenItems("Rectangle_1")

With Object_1
If .BackColor = vbGreen Then
.BackColor = vbRed
Else
.BackColor = vbGreen
End If
End With

You get the complete reference when you open the help of WinCC flexible, enter the tab "Index" and search for "script". Choose any entry and select "Extra > Open PDF" on the right side of the table.

Hello Body,

Thanks for the tip on the pdf.

Is there a place to insert the script so that it is continually read? I tried to enter it in the screen loaded event, but then it is only read once when all the objects on the screen are loaded. What I'm really after is that while the object is visible on the screen, and more than one condition exists, the object continually changes from one color to another color. I tried to do thisusing the object- animation-appearance property but this only allows the reference of one tag. I would like to reference multiple tags.

Thanks,

jkur

Thanks again Roland, I think the plc tag property solution will work since I am using a MP377 as well as a PC. However, I would like to investigate the PC solution as well. This should resolve this issue.
