Dynamize the foreground color of a text in a faceplate

Thorleik

Try script shown bellow (dynamization of background colour) :

export function Button_1_BackColor_Trigger(item) {

var value;

let tagValue1 = Tags("WordTag").Read();

value = (tagValue1 & (1 << BitNo)) === 0 ? 0 : 1;

if (value) {

Screen.FindItem('Button_1').BackColor = 0xFF00E600;

} else {

Screen.FindItem('Button_1').BackColor = 0xFFD6D6CE;

}

}

WordTag -> status word

BitNo -> bit number (write 10 if you want to check 10th bit of status word

I would like to dynamize the foreground color of a text in a faceplate. Screen object is obviously not supported. What should I use instead?

 Hello heliocentric!

The idea is the same.

Faceplate.Items("Text_1").ForeColor = 0x4000ff00;

Thanks for the answer. It also works if you just assign the color value to the return value. My problem now is how to relate with the color codes. I thought they might be RGB but this does not work. I also tried RGB() and RGBA() but when I use them the colors dont change. If I use the colors from the examples though the colors work as expected. Please advice.

 

Hello,

try to use that function:

HMIRuntime.Math.RGB(94, 209, 173)

There you can enter RGB values and optional the alpha chanel.

If you use the plain hex Value, the first byte is the alpha (transparent) channel.
0xAA RR GG BB

All is good but one thing. The color changes according o the tag but only when I reopen the faceplate. If the tag changes while the faceplate is open then it doesn't show. Any ideas?

 How did you configure the trigger of that Dynamization? I assume that WordTag should be the trigger here
