User-defined bitmaps can be stored in the "user" directory. They are displayed instead of the
standard bitmaps in the lists.
Handling of lists
The columns of the lists in which the bitmaps are to be entered can be set for each list view.
The width of the bitmaps is set in characters for the entire highlighted areas. The width of the
column is automatically increased by the value set.
Bitmaps overwrite mutually when displayed in the same column and line. The highlighting at
the top represents the current tool, the highlighting below represents the programmed tool
and the highlighting at the bottom represents the current location. Hidden bitmaps are not
displayed.
Note
In multi-line magazine and tool lists, the highlighting is entered in the cutting edge line when
the current/programmed DNo./cutting edge no. <> 0. The same applies in working offset lists
for DLNo. <> 0 for the DL rows. Since only cutting edges can be displayed in the views of the
working offset lists, the highlighting only appears if the current/programmed DNo./cutting
edge no. <> 0.
The current magazine location is only highlighted in the magazine list views. Highlighting
only appears in the normal magazine display and not in the buffer magazine display.
Setting the bitmap parameters
By default, the bitmaps are not entered in paramtm.ini and are not displayed. If the bitmaps
are to be displayed in the lists, you will have to make some changes to the parameter file.
One entry is required for each bitmap.
Entries in paramtm.ini:
