USING THE PAGE LIST
CRIMSON USER MANUAL - MODULAR CONTROLLER
Due to screen resolution and panel size, it might not be possible to visualize the entire screen
design even when zoomed out. It is possible however to get this view using the View > Panel
> Show All Screen menu. This menu is only available when the Panel is NOT in display only
mode. Edition of the screen however will not be available in this mode since the screen
resolution is too small for accurate drawings.
OTHER VIEW OPTIONS
As well as controlling the zoom, the View menu contains the following options…
• The Page List command can be used to show or hide the left-hand pane of the
User Interface window. If the page list is disabled, even more space is made
available for editing the display. The F4 key toggles the page list on and off.
• The Hold Aspect command can be used to control whether or not Crimson
attempts to maintain the aspect ratio of the display. If aspect holding is enabled,
a figure that would appear as, say, a circle on the monochrome virtual HMI will
appear as a perfect circle on your PC. If this mode is not selected, Crimson can
expand the display page to use more of the PC’s screen, but at the expense of
some distortion.
Other options are available during page editing, and are described below.
USING THE PAGE LIST
To create, rename or delete display pages, click on the left-hand pane of the User Interface
window. The various commands on the Page menu can then be used to make the desired
changes. Alternatively, right-click on the required display page, and select from the menu.
