Defining softkey menus
Definition
The term softkey menu is used to refer to all the horizontal and vertical softkeys displayed on
a mask. In addition to the existing softkey menus, it is possible to define other menus, which
partially or completely overwrite the existing menus.
The names of the softkeys are predefined. Not all softkeys need to be assigned.
HSx x 1 - 8, Horizontal softkeys 1 to 8
VSy y 1 - 8, Vertical softkeys 1 to 8
The definition of a softkey menu (softkey menu definition block) is basically structured as
follows:
Definition block
//S...
HSx=...
PRESS(HSx)
LM...
END_PRESS
//END
Description
Properties are assigned to softkeys during definition of the softkey menu.
