Moving popups

Hello,

I would like to move the popup every click at the pumps of my program . That is, for each pump , the popup would appear in a different place. Does anyone know how I do it ? I'm using the TIA Portal Prof.


Best regards

Hi,

Just a quick thought: Left/Top?

If you use "ScreenWindow" maybe you will find interesting the WinCC Professional V13.0 manual for example at page 5117. You can read description next to

Left property: "Specifies the value of the X coordinate of the object."

Top property: "Specifies the value of the Y coordinate of the object."

Please let us known how did you solved the issue!

I hope I could help!

Hello Natali

First of all its important for us to know with which project do you work?

Do you have a WinCC Professional Runtime or a Comfort Panel or a WinCC Advanced Runtime?

The Technology in Advanced and Professional are totally different.

Which Popup do you use? (Popupscreens in Advanced/Comfort or Picture Windows in WinCC Professional or Messagebox out of Script)

There are different ways to work so we have to know what you want to use.

Hi, MicroMan

I created two internal tags to define the position for X and Y axes, but I can not associate with any property when I click on the object " Pump " .

I send an attachment that could help you .

Hi,

The Top/Left properties should be accessible via for example VBs.

In the case you want to see an example how to access object properties from VBs, there is plenty of example in the WinCC Professional V13.0 manual. For example under chapter "10.8.9.3 Example of defining object colors".

Also the syntax for the Left property described on the page 5339, the syntax for the Top property described on the page 5661.

I hope I could help!

PS: just found an example for you in WinCC V6 VBS Reference Printout of the Online Help under chapter "1.2.2.4 Picture Window".

Hi,

I solved the problem with your hints!
I changed the programing for change color and I used it as Property Left/Top, but before I converted the variable on ScreenItem, as says in the manual.

Thanks for help me!
