An explanation of the Value Box Control for Axiom.

Value Box

Displays real time values with applied formatting with optional pretext or post text descriptions.

Name - The name used by the application and script to reference this control.

X - Number of pixels from the left edge of the containing panel or screen.

Y - Number of pixels from the top edge of the containing panel or screen.

Width - Width of the control in pixels.

Format - Standard numeric format strings are used to format common numeric types in the Value Box. A pretext can be added before the “{“ and a post text can be added after the “}”, as in “Flow {0:G} GPH”

TextSize - Text size has four options; Small, Normal, Large, or ExtraLarge.

HorizontalAlign - Position of the text within the label: Left, Center, or Right.

SourceTag - Clicking the trend icon launches the tag browser to select a tag for value input. Clicking the trashcan will delete the reference to the tag. Assigning a tag to a value box allows the designer to set limits which can change the color of the value box.

LimitLow - The SourceTag value falling below this value will change the color to

the LimitLowColor.

LimitHigh - The SourceTag value going above this value will change the color to

the LimitHighColor.

Color - The normal color of the symbol. Pick from the color picker or enter the

hexadecimal value.

LimitLowColor - The color of the symbol when the SourceTag value drops below

the LimitLow value. Pick from the color picker or enter the hexadecimal value.

LimitHighColor - The color of the symbol when the SourceTag value goes above

the LimitHigh value. Pick from the color picker or enter the hexadecimal value.

Visible - Unchecking this will hide the control. A script would be required to toggle the visibility during runtime.

OnClick - An event that occurs when the control is clicked. Clicking "<>" Creates a

"ValueBox1_Click()" script stub for this control and opens the script editor to add

event scripting. Clicking the trash can will delete only the reference to the script,

not the script.

OnValueChange - An event that occurs when the SourceTag value changes.

Clicking "<>" Creates a "ValueBox1_ValueChange()" script stub for this control and

opens the script editor to add event scripting. Clicking the trash can will delete

only the reference to the script, not the script.
