Creating a New Project • Auto Screen Scaling checkbox: Click (enable) this box to automatically scale project screens when you resize the Viewer window. This feature is available for local projects running on Windows PC or in the Thin Client. This parameter is not available for projects running on Windows Embedded target systems. • Active area indication pane: Click (enable) the Show Object Edge and Change Mouse Cursor checkboxes in this area to modify the object edge and the mouse cursor when moving the cursor over any object where the Command animation has been applied. • Virtual Keyboard : When this option is checked, the Virtual Keyboard is enabled for your project.
(This option does not apply when your project is running on a Thin Client; for more information, see Project Settings: Web .) The keyboard allows the user to enter data during runtime on touchscreen panels — that is, without typing on a physical keyboard. For example, a Text object with the Text Data Link animation applied and the Input Enabled option checked. You can establish a default configuration for the virtual keyboard: • Default : Select the default keyboard type to be used in your project, when no keyboard type is specified by the calling object or function. • Scale : Using this option, you can shrink or enlarge the keyboard to fit the size of the target display.
A value of 100% represents the default size of each keyboard type. • Show Hint checkbox and field: When this option is checked, a hint is displayed in the title bar of the keyboard. For individual objects, the hint is configured in the Object Properties dialog . Otherwise, type a string value in the Show Hint field to serve as a defaut hint. • Enable Min/Max Fields option: When this option is checked, the minimum and maximum allowed values are displayed at the bottom of the keyboard. For objects, these values are configured in the Object Properties dialog . Otherwise, the Min and Max properties of the associated Tag are used by default. Note:
The Min and Max fields are displayed only on the Keypad keyboard type, and only when the associated Tag is defined as Integer or Real. If Min is greater than Max, then input will be disabled. If Min/Max configured on the object is different from Min/ Max configured in the Tag properties, then your project will attempt to scale the input accordingly. • Mouse Cursor checkbox: Click (enable) this box to show the mouse cursor in the runtime project. Note: The Mouse Cursor option is not supported in Windows CE running on Armv4I processors. • Execute only topmost object commands checkbox:
This option controls how your project behaves when the user clicks in an area where two or more screen objects overlap. If this option is checked, then only the commands on the topmost object will be executed. If this option is not checked, then the commands on all of the overlapping objects will be executed. Note: The topmost object is the one with the highest ID number. (The ID number of an object is displayed in the status bar at the bottom of the development environment.) You can use the Move to Back / Move to Front and Move Backward / Move Forward tools to change the order in which objects are stacked. InduSoft Web Studio Page 83
