creating navigation through panels in lookout

[sgwater]

Hi, Im trying to create some navigation through different panels in lookout using Push buttons. They work fine on the server machine.

But when i copy the client processes to another computer and try to navigate through the windows on the client they dont work and they generate

Alarms telling me that it turning on and turning off.

What i want to do is be able to have a client process with multiples panels and allow the user to navigate through the panels by clickin on a button.

Any information or insight appreciated thanks.

i use a combo box for navigating around panels....seems a little cleaner to me than pushbuttons although i have used them in the past...take a look at this

Thanks for the info, but where do i go to create a combobox in lookout ?

thanks 😉

when you add a new object select the active x tab in the select object window and its in the recommended folder "Lookout Combobox"    i know this is a little confusing at first but when you get the first panel to work then the rest are easy.....randy

did you get this to work?

Sorry i haven't responded sooner just been extremely busy rolling out our scada system.

Yes i was able to get the combo box to work however i didnt like how after i selected the window in the drop down menu if i went back to the page it didnt reset the drop down menu

however i've been able to get thing to work just using a button and when it pushed it opens the page.

Anyways thanks for the help.
