Tiling

[Function Outline]
[Restrictions]
S It is possible to make a single library data display by combining multiple fixed
display elements. If the display attributes for any of the elements in such a dis-
play is "Flash" or "Inverse Flash", the display flashes in accordance with these
settings.
S The timing of the flashing is the same for all elements.
S Circles, arcs, sectors, polylines, polygons, rectangles (page 301) and marks
(page 315) overlap each other in accordance with the order in which they were
created. However, the way in which they overlap can be changed with the Sup-
port Tool.
The area enclosed by a line of the specified color is tiled with the specified tiling
pattern.
S Up to 65535 of the following graphics can be registered on one screen. For an
overlapping screen comprising 8 child screens, the maximum is 524280
×
(65535 8 screens).

marks
There is no restriction on the number of graphics that can be registered for one
screen data file: any number can be registered as long as the data file capacity is
not exceeded.
S The area to be tiled must be enclosed by a solid line of the same color. If the line
is broken at any point, or if it flashes or is deleted, the tiling pattern will cover the
area outside the line as well. Tiling will also spread outside the intended bound-
ary line, in accordance with the display order, if it is displayed before the border
line.
S Depending on the combination of the foreground color of a graphic (when tiled),
the background color, and the border color, part of the frame of the graphic may
be invisible. This is a phenomenon peculiar to a color LCD, not a failure of the
PT. If this causes a problem, change the color combination.
