Applies to:

PcVue version 7.00 onwards.


Summary:

This article indicates how to identify which properties of an external ActiveX can be linked to variables from the variables tree.


Details:

When one uses an external ActiveX in a mimic, certain properties appear in grey and others in black.  The properties in grey are known as bindable. This means that the container can subscribe to the property and will be notified of any change of value of the property.

Examples

For example, here are the properties of an ActiveX, Microsoft Form 2.0 ScrollBar:

KB_ActiveX_Binding_Scrollbar_dialog

All of the properties of ScrollBar can be linked, most usually the Value property.

The next example is for the ActiveX Microsoft Slider 6.0 SP6 (see the attach file : Visual Basic 6 .exe)

KB_ActiveX_Binding_Slider_dialog

Here only the Enabled property can be linked.
