Element object
The Element object is used to represent any object on a display. It exposes all of the properties and methods of the objects that are implemented by Graphics rather than by the object itself. This is similar to the Extender object for ActiveX controls and the Control object for Visual Basic Forms.
The Element object is not a creatable object. You cannot use the keyword
New
to create an instance of this object.The Element object's properties and methods are merged with the object-specific properties, methods, and events. This extended object is what the user sees when directly accessing the object from VBA using the object's name.
Remarks
- A graphic element can be a FactoryTalk View (intrinsic) graphic object (for example a rectangle, an ellipse, or a numeric display or input field), an ActiveX control, or a group.
- An Element object is accessible through the Elements collection of a Display or Group object.
- Use the Item method of the Elements collection to get a reference to an Element object.
