Runtime Menu Options dialog
• Resize Border checkbox: Click (enable) this box to allow the user to resize the Viewer window during runtime.
• Status Line checkbox: Click (enable) this box to display the Status Line in the runtime project.
• Startup screen field: Click the combo box and select the screen ( .SCR ) or screen group ( .SG ) you want to
display automatically when you open the runtime project.
Note: Another way to specify a screen or screen group as the startup screen is to right-click on it
in the Project Explorer and then choose Set as startup from the shortcut menu.
• Show when quality is not GOOD checkbox: Click (enable) this box to display question marks () instead of
the tag's value when their quality is not good.
• Hide Taskbar checkbox: Click (enable) this box to hide the Windows taskbar by default.
• Disable Palm Rejection: Select this option to disable Palm Rejection during project runtime. Palm Rejection is a
feature on Windows 7 touchscreen devices that detects and rejects accidental touches from the operator's
palm. However, it can somewhat slow the touchscreen's responsiveness, so disabling it can improve the
performance of the project runtime.
Note: Palm Rejection is not available on anything other than Windows 7 touchscreen devices, so
selecting Disable Palm Rejection will have no effect in projects running on other target systems.
Tip: Windows 7 touchscreen devices also have an option to allow the user to press and hold on
the screen to right-click. This is useful on consumer devices like tablets and smartphones, but
it can interfere with the operation of a IWS project where the user needs to be able to press and
hold buttons and other screen objects. The option is selected by default, so to disable the option
on the device:
1. Click the Start button, and then on the Start menu, click Control Panel. The Control Panel window
is displayed.
2. Double-click Pen and Touch. The Pen and Touch dialog is displayed.
3. Click the Touch tab.
4. From the Touch actions list, select Press and hold, and then click Settings. The Press and Hold
Settings dialog is displayed.
5. Clear Enable press and hold for right-click.
6. Click OK to close the Press and Hold Settings dialog.
7. Click OK to close the Pen and Touch dialog.
