Making Time Plot widgets

This procedure creates a Time Plot widget using the Make Widget wizard.

A Px View canvas is open. No open palette is required.
  1. Open the Nav side bar and expand the tree to locate the component that you want to add to the Px Editor canvas.


  2. Drag the desired component to the canvas.
    The Make Widget wizard opens.

    The ord for the selected component displays in the ord area.

  3. To bind to a different slot or component, double-click the ord and browse to the different slot in the component (for example: out or value) or to a different component.
  4. Select the Time Plot from the Source options list.
    The Secondary view area displays Minimum Value and Maximum Value properties.

  5. In the Secondary view area (red box) enter the desired minimum and maximum values to display in the Time Plot widget and click OK.
    The Make Widget wizard closes and the new Time Plot widget opens on the Px Editor canvas.

  6. Edit the widget, if desired, by doing one or both of the following:

    • To allow the plot to display completely, resize the widget.

    • Edit the Time Plot widget properties (header, lines, fonts, and so on) using the Widget Tree and Properties palettes.

  7. To display the result in the Px Viewer, click Toggle View/Edit Mode () in the tool bar.
