About the Grid Label Pane view

The Grid Label Pane view is a view of the ComponentGrid component. This view provides a tabular display of all the points that are assigned to the ComponentGrid.

In the Grid Table Pane view, you can write to points (issue commands) using the popup menu, if you have write permissions. Points in the table also display color-coded status, as shown.

In the Px Editor view, you can use the GridLabelPane widget to layout the table on a Px page and edit the properties of the display properties, as shown in the figure below. These properties allow you to change the font-type and color, as well as set the text alignment of the table cells, table heading, and first column properties.
