Do you want to say that the action there is configured using script? I have studied the original block icon. The block icon I have shown in attachment is created by someone else and I had to study and createanother block icon with similar actions. Thats why I wanted to know how is it created. I tried to use extended status display also but could not make the block as required. Thanks. Chetna Hi, That's why I ask you Which Block your Working in my Previous Post, Becuse if you tell this then we will try to find out the way. also let me now what you want to show on the Block Icon Which you have not achived by Extended Status Display? if you provied the all detail then only it is easy to other people reply, other wise it will be never ending. from last 10 post still I can't able to figured out what you are looking for ? Library Object that only but What your exact Requirment is not clear (Aim Behind this)

This is what am trying to explore through that configured "OnClick" property, but all in vain. Hope I made myself clear this tim. Thanks. Chetna

Chetna Hi Chetna, Now it is Clear, what you want, Copy the Working Block Icon, Edit it what you want in side it, Don't Delete anything in that, if you want to add, add it, Finish the Block Icon Edit, Now Checked the Property of the Block Icon, Event -> Click. also compare Action with orignal (Working Block Icon). here is the Link for the PCS7 Faceplate in that you will find all the Action & where you have to call........

This is what am trying to explore through that configured "OnClick" property, but all in vain. Creating your own block Icons for displaying statndard faceplates is a bit tedious. For that you have to have Servername , Tagname , Version etc. in your block Icon. and then you have to call a C scipt to trigger. If you want to display your own made Faceplates, then use picture Windows. You can assign a small size Pdl to the picture name property of Picture Window and make visibility ON/OFF through Mouse Click more information on WinCC Objects can be found in WinCC Manuals. Refer them

Hi, I have attached the screen shot the user defined block icon which I have created for my project and the C-script for opening the facelate is as follow. You have to call the script at the event=> mouse action. Script #include "apdefap.h" void OnClick(char* lpszPictureName, char* lpszObjectName, char* lpszPropertyName) { APL_OpenFaceplate(lpszPictureName, lpszObjectName,0, NULL, NULL ); } Attachment block icon.pdf (318 Downloads)

Chetna Hi, The object in your attachement is of symbol library only and they wont have mouse actions by default. To assign some attribute to that object you have to make the customized object by using the symbols from symbol library. Please look into the attachement about creating a customized object by using symbol library Attachment customized object.pdf (303 Downloads)
