Cre ating Win dows
windows may require a common alarm message. By changing the common window with each series of windows,
you can customize each common window to contain only the graphics objects that are needed.
To change the active common window
1. Create a common window.
2. Create a base window that is full screen. This will be used as another common window.
Note that when a base window is used as a common window, the Start Pos:, Style, Frame,
and Background settings are ignored by the OIT. For this example, let's use Window#30 as
the alternate common window.
3. Create another full screen base window that can be displayed along with the common
windows, (such as a startup window). Let's use Window#10, the initial window, for our
example.
4. On Window#10, create a Function Key object that is used to change the common window.
From the Parts menu, click Function Key. The Create Function Key Object dialog box
appears.
5. On the General tab, click Change Common Window.
6. In the same frame, enter 30 for Window No..
7. Click the Shape tab. Click Use Shape. Click on the Shape Library... command. Select
Shape#0 from the button1 library. Click OK to return to the Create Function Key Object
dialog box.
8. Click the Label tab. Click the Use label checkbox.
9. For our example, type CCW (meaning Change Common Window) into the Contents box.
Click OK to exit the Create Function Key Object dialog box and go back to the EasyBuilder
main screen.
10. Place the new Function Key object somewhere on Window #10.
Below is an illustration of what the default common window, Window#30 (alternate common window), and
Window#10 (startup window) might look like:
