Creating Sub-Page View Buttons
- Open the Page, Popup Page or Sub-Page that the button will be added to - double-click on the page in the Workspace Navigator (Pages tab) to open the page and bring it into edit focus.
- Select the Button Draw tool from the Selection/Drawing Tools Toolbar.
- With the Button Draw tool still selected, left-click inside the desired page (in the active Design View window), and while holding the left mouse button down, drag to draw the button to the desired size and shape.
- In the General tab of the Properties window - Type property, set Sub-Page View as the button type.
This selection updates the Properties window, and the Design View window to represent the properties specific to this button type.
- Set the button properties as desired by editing the General, Programming and States properties in the Properties window.
NOTE: The Address Port and Address Code assignments for Sub-Page View buttons are provided only for use in SEND- COMMANDS (not to trigger actions). Sub-Pages do not utilize Channel Port/Code addresses.
- Select File > Save to save your changes.
