UBALDO GONZALEZ: In this video, I will show you how to change the color of your objects
that we created on the previous video
As you can see, I've added a lot of icons, shortcut icons
here. Click on the screen, go in to "object." You get color
choices and letter
or font-size, text-size changing capabilities
So, what I want to do, on my push buttons, I like to double click
and it opens up this window
So, go to "states" and
right now, the state, is actually "ST1"
That's because I have this one
Alright, I go back here
when it's zero, or open,
I want the button to read "start."
When it is actually a one or closed, I want it to read
"stop." Click "ok."
As you see, how the text changed. So, now I want to
double-click, get back in to the window.
Go back to "states." Now, I want to change my color.
And I like to add a fill
and use that
It just gives it a little contrast. When it's
off or open, I want to button to be green
but when the button's closed
I want it to be red. Click "ok"
There are our two colors. Right now, it's showing me
on the one state, it's going to look like this
and if I change it to the zero state, that's what it looks like now.
Next, I'm going to do my fonts, or my text
color. Double-click, go back to states
So, now I'm going to scroll this bar right here
and if you look at your text
background, it's blue.
You can see it's blue right here, so I want to make that to
be green, but not exactly the same
green as before
as the object background. And I want it to
one is going to be red, so I want to change this one to red. Click "ok."
Now you can go back and see that it changed it.
Go back to one, there you see both shades of red
Back to zero. So, that's how you do, start/stop
Also, you have other options
that you can play with for different colors and font sizes.
Now, I'm going to go to my indicator
Go to "states" and do
the same thing. This time, the background
I want it to be black when it
is zero or off. When it's a one
it will show on and I want to make this one
a bright, light
yellow and when it's zero
or off, I'm going to put "pump"
off and it's going to say when it
is on "pump on"
Click "ok."
Now, the blue doesn't look good.
with the background, so I'm going to change that.
And that is my text background
it's going to be black when it is off but it's going to be
a light green when it is on.
Right now, you want a
contrast in your background color and your text color
So, if you click right here and select this
"enter text" icon right here.
Just click it one time, you'll see this is what you're going to be changing
right now. So I can click here. Now go
and change...go to "format" and change
Now go to "foreground
color," if you notice is saying "white"
That is the color of the text. So, click right here once again.
Hit "enter text" now hit "format"
Go to "foreground color" and I'm going to make this one
a...
the color black. So, now, you have a good contrast
between the background and the foreground of the text
So, what I want to do now is see what it's going to look like
when it's in the off
It shows pretty good. Now when it's on...So, when I download
this to the Panelview and run it, this is exactly what my
objects are going to look like.
On the next video, I will show you how to do
multi-screen displays
or how to do the screen 1/screen 2 setup
and also your valve and water displays
and graphs. Thank you.
