HDV Hotbox Widget

Not linked to any tag.

* Does not use the Style Settings tag.

Create a hotbox that opens an Historical Data Viewer window with a preselected set of tag values, over a preset time range. The HDV page that opens will include all of the standard tools for changing the tag selection, legend, time range and scale factor.

Because hotboxes are not visible until the pointer is over them, you are advised to add a label that will help operators find this control.

The properties dialog for the HDV Hotbox widget:

Hotbox Color

The default color is yellow. You may wish to choose a color that distinguishes this link from other types of hotbox.

Pen Group Selector

An existing pen group must be chosen, otherwise this button provides nothing more than a link to an empty HDV page.

Pen groups are created in the Historical Data Viewer page, using the Tag Selector dialog.

Duration Selector

Choose the length of time that will be shown initially when the HDV page opens.
