WindowMaker objects

Graphical objects are the key parts of the human machine interface (HMI) applications you build.

As you build your applications, you create simple objects, combine simple objects to make more complex objects, and use some pre-defined complex objects.

The individual elements of a complex object are usually grouped together to:

• Prevent a complex object from breaking apart while editing.

• Duplicate the entire object.

• Assign a common set of properties to its individual elements.

You can use Industrial graphics created with the Industrial Graphic Editor in your managed or Advanced InTouch applications. You can also add Industrial Graphics directly from WindowMaker’s Industrial Graphic Toolbox. For more information about working with Industrial and Situational Awareness Library symbols, see Industrial Graphic Editor User documentation or WindowMaker help.
