  • 1.  Button on DB Panel to Open DP Panel

    Posted 15 days ago

    Hello,

    Would anybody be able to point me in the right direction to do the follwoing 'task'/command?

    I want to make a button on a DashBoard Panel that opens another Panel on the same Ultritouch or PC.

    How do i do this?

    I have found the open.file command, but i dont know how to use that. I can see there is a comment section for that node, but im guessing there is more to it.

    There is a panel link tag that works similar to HTML tags, '<ext/>' 

    Here is an example using multiple panels, save these all in the same folder:

    Link panel: 

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><abs contexttype="opengear" gridsize="20" id="_top" keepalive="true">
       <label height="60" left="40" name="Linking Panels" style="txt-align:west;size:Bigger;" top="40" width="620"/>
       <label height="20" left="40" name="You can link other panels in your panel, using the ext tag." style="txt-align:west;" top="100" width="1100"/>
    <table bottom="1779" left="40" right="2083" top="160">
          <tr>
             <ext colspan="1" fill="both" name="Panel 1" objectid="subpanel1.grid" rowspan="1" weightx="1.0" weighty="1.0"/>
             <ext colspan="1" fill="both" name="Panel 2" objectid="subpanel2.grid" rowspan="1" weightx="1.0" weighty="1.0"/>
          </tr>
       </table>
    </abs>

    Subpanel 1: 

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><abs contexttype="opengear" id="_top" style="">
       <label bottom="6" left="4" name="This is PANEL 1" right="10" style="txt-align:center;size:Biggest;" top="4"/>
    <abs left="289" top="166"/>
    </abs>
    

    Subpanel 2: 

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><abs contexttype="opengear" id="_top" style="">
       <label bottom="6" left="4" name="This is subpanel2" right="10" style="txt-align:center;size:Biggest;bg#navigationbg;" top="4"/>
    </abs>
