Define the position and length of a bar
To define the position and length of a bar:
1. On Screen Painter, position the cursor where you want a bar to begin, and select the
bar
action list option.
The cursor returns to its original position, and the following message is displayed:
Move cursor to define opposite corner of bar and press RETURN.
2. Move the cursor using the arrow keys to define the length and width of the bar, and
press
Return
.
A question mark (?) is displayed in the upper left corner of the bar. The question mark
indicates that you have not yet assigned a Row Search ID to the bar.
The system displays the Bar window:
The Bar window (with sample input)
Define the bar’s data expression
Enter a data expression in the
Select
field to tell CMS two things:
●
What table columns should supply data to the bar
●
How to manipulate that data.
The rules for this
Select
field are identical to those of the
Select
field for the Field
window. However, the following types of database items do not make sense for bars:
●
Identifiers (for example,
SPLIT
,
VDN
,
LOGID
, and so on)
●
Current state data (for example,
WORKMODE
, or
DURATION
)
●
Constants (unless they are part of a calculation).
