Create display list selectors

Use the display list selector to show a list of graphic displays that the operator can choose from. The operator can scroll through the list and select a graphic display.

The operator can scroll through the list and select displays using key buttons or by using the arrow keys and Enter key on a keypad or an external keyboard.

Tip:

The operator cannot use the display list selector to open Replace displays if display change is currently controlled remotely. But the operator can still open displays of the type On Top (with or without the Cannot Be Replaced option).

To create a display list selector

  1. In the Graphics Display editor, select Display Navigation > Display List Selector from the Objects menu.
  2. Drag the mouse to position and draw a rectangle the general size and location you want the selector to be.
  3. Double-click the selector to open its Properties dialog box.
  4. In the Properties dialog box, specify how the selector looks and its states.
