Figure 55: GDE: Dynamic Text symbols
The standard (IEC or ANSI) for the symbols and the selection of the font size for the
text elements can be changed using the two selector boxes on top of the page window.
HMI display raster layout and text font selection
The raster in the page changes from symbol presentation to text presentation when a
text object is selected and vice versa.
The text can be presented in two different font sizes:
• UniCode characters (6 x 12 pixel)
• UniCode characters (13 x 14 pixel)
The total size of the presented white area (page) represents the visible part of the local
HMI display without header and foot-line.
The visible display for a single line diagram is organized in a raster of 13 x 8 (columns
x rows). Each symbol presented by 24 x 24 pixels included by the drag and drop
method must be dropped in a raster box. The apparatus object name can be placed in
all four directions around the symbol. The name is part of the apparatus object.
Handling text
The raster switches when text is selected in a raster of 45 x 15 (columns x rows). One
raster box is the placeholder for one character. A text element must be placed in the
position of the raster. The signal name can changed either by double click or via the
property window. Unit and scaling of the signal can only be changed via the property
window.
Select and toggle Show Texts using the IED Fonts to get a view how it will look like
later on the real HMI display.
Doing Link to draw lines
The line width has to fit to the line width used for the symbols. The standard size is 2.
Choose the line width in a selection box placed in the upper area above the page. A line
