FaceplateInPopup script problem

Hi,

did you tried to check if the object visible property is true before to set it helps?

Hi geri036,

Denilson asks you to test visibility before clicking object.

Did you succeed in ?

I tried several JS scripts using Visible property but without sucess.

Hi, geri036

I use Global defenition for that and several scripts.

1) Create a batton "Close" at the FP and a tag interface with the same name, bool;

2) Create empty array  for FP instance in Global definition (const faceplates = [];);

3) Script for a batton what calls the FP:

Where Belt_UDT:{Tag:"UDT_BeltConveyorFull"},Close:{Tag:closingTag} - your tags interface

4) At properties of the batton, for example, AlternateBackColor set "Script", and write command: return Tags('CloseTags').Read();

Where CloseTags is internal tag in HMI. 

And at AlternateBackColor-> Change:

5) At the batton "Close" of your FP set command:

Also you can watch using of this method at the video (1:08:42)

Hi guys,

I am using this script to call faceplate popup window

export function Button_1_OnUp(item, x, y, modifiers, trigger) {

let po = Faceplate.OpenFaceplateInPopup("Pump_popup", "Pump details", false, false);
po.Left = 200;
po.Top = 200;
po.Visible = true;
po.WindowFlags = 67;

}

But I have problem, if I click 10 times on my pump I get 10 popup windows on my screen. Is there some way to limit this, so if the popup window is already opened and if I click on pump again it closes this popup window and does not open a new one?

 Hi geri036,

The attachment show an example about how to do it with a toggle button.

The code should be split between Global defenition and Script function (as the example shows)

hope that helps 

Hi! 

I used this code!

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//Checks if the popup exists, if it does, it is closed.

//We close the popup if it exists, because if it doesn't and it exists, another popup of the same object is opened. Avoid having 2 popus
if (po)

//pass the method to PO OpenFaceplateInPopup.

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember you need to declare the variable po in global definition (image  attachment)

Hi Geri

The function po.Close() is only available from V17, since the images are not released yet your panel is still V16, you need to firmware upgrade your panel ones the images are released to get it working properly.

Hope that helps somewhat 

Hi geri

I´m not sure what is wrong on your end, I will copy what I´m using (it does work for me atleast) step for step.

The following example is from an motoricon where I open a popup where I can manully control it.

Global defenition

const faceplate = [];

 Script Function
