Let's look more closely at the parameters you can change when creating a new window.
Assigning a Window Name
The Name is a description box used to help you identify what the window is used for without having to actually
open the window and look at the contents. Up to 50 characters can be entered into this field with space characters
allowed.
Assigning the Window Number
Although 1999 windows are available on the Silver Plus Series, two are specifically reserved for the Common
Window and the Fast Selection window and several are reserved for internal use. Therefore, you can assign
#10-1999 to any window you create. When you initially create a window, EasyBuilder will automatically assign the
lowest available number to the window. However, you can assign any number within the allowed range. In this
manner, you can group windows together that may share some common traits.
Assigning a Position
This is the starting position that the window goes to when it is initially called onto the OIT screen. The starting
position is labeled Start Pos: in the Window Setting Dialog box. The X and Y positions refer to the pixel location of
the OIT display at which the upper left hand corner of the window is to be displayed.
The default setting is X=0 and Y=0 which is the upper left hand corner of the OIT display. The X-axis refers to the
horizontal location and the Y-axis refers to the vertical location. The HMI5056 has a 320 x 240 pixel display, so
the ranges are X=0-319 and Y=0-239. The HMI5070 has a 480 x 234 pixel display, so the ranges are X=0-479 and
Y=0-233. The HMI5080/5104 has a 640 x 480 pixel display, so the ranges are X=0-639 and Y=0-479. The

When a window is initially created, the window settings can be edited to make
changes; however, once a window has been created, the window number can not be
changed. To change the window settings, highlight the desired window and click on the
Setting... button.
