Movicon Help on Line - Rel. 11.7.1301
The Edge-Text Color properties allow you to vary the colors of edges and any texts (title) of the component selected in function with the changes of the variable associated.
This property is part of the Draws and Controls 'Animation' properties group.
To edit the Edge-Text Color properties, select the object with the mouse and use the Movicon 'Properties Window' that shows.
Enabling this will activate the Edge-Text Color function in the component selected. By doing this the component will change the colors of the edges and any displayed texts in function with the values of the associated variable at Runtime.
The name of the variable, whose value will be used to change the colors of the edges and any texts in function with the set 'Threshold Colours', is entered here.
Enabing this property will allow you to set the variable used for the animation as the name of the alarm area to be monitored. In this case, the name of the Alarm Area will be entered in the "Variable" field and not that of the variable. In this way, the intervention thresholds will result as:
0 = No Alarm
1 = At least one alarm active
2 = At least one alarm ON
This will allow the status of each alarm area to be monitored graphically by setting the 0,1,2 in the back animation properties.
In addition, when this option is enabled with a string type variable entered in the "Variable" field, the contents of this string will be used as the name of the Alarm Area to be monitored.

This property is not supported in Network Client projects or in projects set as Redundancy "Secondary Server" when the Primary Server is active. In both cases the projects will not have their alarm management active locally, but will receive alarm notifications directly from the Server. |
This property is used to assign the desired colors for the component's edges and text of the numeric values obtained by the Variable. To do this, simply click on the "..." button to open the Color Threshold configuration window.
For further information, please refer to the paragraph on "Color Threshold Settings in Draws and Controls".
This property is used to enable a gradual transition from one color to another which involves an 'analog' mixture of the two colors at the point where the transition is executed. This gradual transition of color shades can only be achieved if intermediate values are entered in the two Variable value thresholds.
