Relationship with Other Elements
•
When tiling is used, an area enclosed by a continuous solid line can be tiled
with the specified pattern (page 92). However, if the line is broken at any
point, or if it flashes or is deleted, the tiling pattern will cover the area outside
the line as well. Tiling will also spread outside the intended boundary line, in
accordance with the display order, if it is displayed before the boundary line.
•
It is possible to make a single library data display by combining multiple fixed
display elements. If the display attribute for any of the elements in such a dis-
play is Flash or Inverse Flash, the display flashes in accordance with this set-
ting.
•
The timing of the flashing is the same for all elements.
•
Both text (page 88) and mark (page 94) fixed displays will overlap each oth-
er in accordance with the order in which they were created. However, the way
in which they overlap can be changed with the Support Tool.
2-4-2 Text (Fixed Display)
These are character strings that are continually displayed as a fixed display.
Standard, flash, and inverse flash displays are possible (inverse display can be
specified by exchanging the foreground color and background color of the char-
acter string).
Since the order of display will always follow the order in which the elements are
created with the Support Tool (character strings created later will overlay others
created earlier), the order of creation must be considered when character
strings are going to overlap.
