Post by phoward131 on Alarm filtering latch variables ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I actually just found the solution maybe. If anyone else is running into this, go to your Project Settings > Visualization > Advanced (check 'Visible' to see advanced settings) > UNCHECK 'Activate property handling in all element properties.' I am not sure what else unchecking this might affect but it seems to allow the alarm table to be filtered as expected.

Post by rafaelbrito on The element of type 'VisuFbElemImage' could not be updated. Reason: Index was outside the bounds of the array. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
When trying to use the Visualization ToolBox, no objects appear and the following error appears. Could you tell me what this error could be? The element of type 'VisuFbElemImage' could not be updated. Reason: Index was outside the bounds of the array. Can anyone tell me what this error is?

Post by timvh on Library ENUM text representation in visualization ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Probably the enum from the library doesn't have text support. In that case you need to add your own TextList to the application. In the rectangle you should use the property "dynamic text" to link this object to the textlist which you have created yourself and then link the text index to your enum variable.

Post by manuknecht on FileDialog - OnDialogClosed not called anymore ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I had similar issues with the OnDialogClosed not being called. I realized that this behaviour is resolved, when the according visualization object on which the input configuration is set is moved to the foreground. Somehow, the object has to be one of the lowest elements in the Element List (i.e. in the foreground) for it to work.

Post by timvh on Current Visu name without Current Visu Variable ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
To change the current visualization for (all) webclients: Add the library “Visu Utils” and use the following example code: VAR xChangeVisu: BOOL; fbChangeVisu : VU.FbChangeVisu; END_VAR // Change to Visu2 when setting xChangeVisu to TRUE fbChangeVisu( xExecute:= xChangeVisu, xDone=> , xBusy=> , xError=> , itfClientFilter:= VU.Globals.OnlyWebVisu, //itfFilter, eError=> , sVisuName:= 'Visu2'); IF fbChangeVisu.xDone OR fbChangeVisu.xError THEN xChangeVisu := FALSE; END_IF

Post by mqi2r on Newly created texlists wont appear in the selection dropdown ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For anyone with this issue, you may need to: Open the text list properties (right-click the text list once you create it). Select the Text List tab. Change the Download by option to Visualization. I was fighting this for so long. Once you do that, you should find your text list appears in the drop down when editing a visualisation.

Post by lgeertsema on Checkbox font color in visualization style ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I'm having a similar issue with buttons. I want to be able to set the default color and transparency of a button. I've tried a lot of different iterations like KNewman, but to no avail. Has there been some documentation released since KNewman posted this, or is the style editor still as undocumented as ever?

Post by smartcoco on Add visual background FB blocks. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Can you add a background FB block to the visualization page, and loop through this FB block when the page is in display mode. This FB block requires two more functions, one for executing when the page is displayed and the other for executing when the page is closed.

Post by snhatton on Running webvisu with Codesys Control Win V3 in Simulation Mode ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Yes, you can use the CODESYS ControlWin V3 Soft PLC. However, if simulation is enabled on the device this will disable all communication, so you need to turn off simulation to view the visualization in a web browser. In simulation mode, all IO and communication is disabled for standalone testing. In addition, make sure to set the start visualization in the WebVisu object in the application tree. I hope this helps!

Post by lookingforhelp on CODESYS v3.5 SP18 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello @community, i hope i will get a solution for following problem. I am using CODESYS v3.5 SP18. At the visualization i dont see the action for the element which i could set below the InputConfiguration-Section. I found a topic about that, but this could be resolved through activate the Advanced Checkbox. But in my case it did not work. See the screenshots. I hope someone know this problem and have a solution. Thank you in advance.

Post by jvfred on Reading a negative number ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have a Codesys-based Eurotherm E+PLC400 connected to Codesys HMI SL for visualization. I am also bringing in several Pressure Indicators via the Ethernet. Everything works; however, the Pressure indicators sometimes read a negative value. When they do, the displayed value on the screen reads "65532." While I know what it represents, the customer freaks out and wants it to read "0" or a negative number. The value comes in as an integer, just in case that matters. Does anyone have any ideas?

This is still a huge problem. Does someone know how to update the frame references (not manually for every frame-element...)?

Thanks for your answers! Close and Open CoDeSys has no effect. I already tried the original Roboto and this is working. But I think our marketing compartment changed it.

Post by timvh on Refresh visulization realtime ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Should work by using the property Dynamic bitmap - Bitmap version. Change the value of the variable you linked to this property after you updated the image. See: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_elem_image.html

That time it was not answered. But yes, it is possible. Search for "Relative movement" properties of the rectangle element. Might need to enable advanced features in the property browser. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_elem_rectangle.html

Thanks, but unfortunately it does not work. I tried also the other function in the Properties window. What i tried also is to change the Visu-Style or looking for options.

Put %f in the "text" field and rValue in the "Text variable" field. You could also have a look at the possible placeholders: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_placeholder_with_formatting_sequence_in_a_string.html
