Restrict user access to rows and columns

You can prevent the operator from:

• Resizing columns

• Selecting rows

• Selecting multiple rows

Use this feature for interfaces where it is easy to accidentally resize columns or select rows. For example, if the Alarm Control is running on a small display, use the AllowColumnResize Property and RowSelection Property properties in scripting to control the ability to resize columns and select rows at run time.

To prevent the operator from resizing columns

1. Double-click the Alarm Control on the canvas. The Edit Animations dialog box appears.

2. Click Run-Time Behavior. The Run-Time Behavior page appears.

3. Clear the Allow Column Resizing check box.

4. Click OK.
