SpKV Posts: 139 Rating: (1)	Hello, colleagues! Questions are appeared themselves when upgrading stranger software! Now we are upgrading software on one plant. Software of OPs was implemented in ProTool. We are working on WinCC Flexible 2008 SP2. Old projects were converted to Flexible without problems. But! I cannot understand how are screen changing organized! I'll explain! Buttons F1, F2, ..., F12 set bits (by means "SetBitWhileKeyPressed" function) 0,1, ...11 in tag. That is all!!! But different screens are opening when press F1, F2,...,F12. What magic? Best regasrds, SpKV.

Or by entering a screen number: how can you make a screen selection on a Windows-based operator panel by entering a screen number? Sometimes it looks like magic Best regards, Wizard

SpKV Posts: 139 Rating: (1)	Hello, Wizard! Thank you for reply. I check your suggestions. Below is results. 1. In concerned projects any controller jobs exist (see attachment "Controller jobs.jpg"). 2, 3. In concerned projects bits of tag with name "SoftKeys" are set when pressing on F1, F2,...,F12 buttons. But no event exist for this tag (see attachment "SoftKeysTagEvents.jpg"). Does other magic methods exist? Best regards, SpKV. Attachment Pictures.zip (115 Downloads)

SpKV Posts: 139 Rating: (1)	Wizard, thank you for ideas! I've solved the problem. Depending on the plant state and button pressed (tag SoftKeys) they are set tag "Soll_Bild" to unique number (in PLC program). And this tag has event "ActivateScreenByNumber". Best regards, SpKV.
