After an item group is created, you can configure the parameters.
Item value property setting
Set these two parameters in each item of the group.
|
Parameter |
Type |
Description |
|---|---|---|
|
groupDisplay |
SBOOL |
If false, the item value property (displayName and displayValue) does not display in the InteractionViewer or in the Instructor item explorer. |
|
groupOrder |
SINT |
Used to sort the items both in the InteractionViewer and in the Instructor item explorer. This value is also used to sort items in the Instructor item handler panel where the groupDisplay attribute is ignored. Set groupOrder to -1 to avoid the item displaying in the instructor item panel. |
Configuration example
For example, a control panel comprised of an ItemBasic (panelXX), two ItemPushButton nodes (startXX and stopXX) and a selector (selXX).
The configuration could be as follows.
|
Item |
groupDisplay |
groupOrder |
|---|---|---|
|
panelXX |
false |
-1 |
|
gaugeXX |
true |
1 |
|
startXX |
false |
2 |
|
stopX |
false |
3 |
|
selXX |
true |
4 |
Example result
The result of the configuration example would be:
-
Interaction Viewer and IS object explorer: Displays two ordered values: gaugeXX, selXX.
-
IS item handler: Displays four handlers in the following order: gaugeXX, startXX, stopXX, selXX.
