Working with Pages
Creating a Page Flip
A basic keypad page design concept is the Page Flip. A page flip is a button attribute that allows the user
to press a button to "flip" through different keypad pages. A basic example would be a button labeled
"DVD Player" on a main page that when touched, opens a DVD Player page, containing only buttons
that control the DVD player. Typically you would set up a different control page for each piece of
equipment. Organization of device controls is essential to good touch panel design, and page flips allow
you to separate, organize and cross-link your control pages.
To create a page flip:
1. Select a (or create a new) button.
2. Go to Project > Button Item Properties.
3. Click the browse button (...) to open the Button Page Flip Actions dialog.
4. Click the Add command button to create a new page flip for this button, and access a drop-down list
of possible actions for the page flip (or Page Flip Action). The selected page flip action is
represented in the Action column.
5. Specify the target page to open. Click the down arrow in the Target column to select the target of the
selected Page Flip Action.
6. Repeat this process as desired to create multiple page flips on the button.
7. Use the up and down arrows to re-arrange the order of the page flips if necessary.
