7.5.4 Using the Task Bar
The Task Bar is used to hold the window control buttons of pop-up child windows. Window control buttons only appear if a
Window Bar Function part is on the child window. Minimize window parts are not necessary but helps when multiple
windows are displayed to clear the screen.
Function Parts are used to create title bars and minimize icons for child windows. See the Object Reference Guide section
for more details about creating and using Function parts.
Base windows can be minimized by putting a Function part with the
Minimize window
attribute on them.
Base windows that have a Function part with the
Window Bar
attribute can be moved. The label text in the title bar is
truncated and shown in the reduced icon form in the window bar.
Example:
1. A Numeric Input Extend part is on a window.
2. A pop-up keypad is activated when the Numeric Input Extend part is
touched. The Keypad has a Window Bar and Minimize window
Function part in it.
3. The operator can minimize the keypad to view the original number if
desired.
4. Touching the Minimized button on the Task Bar restores the keypad
window.
