Create a diagnostics button

At runtime, the diagnostics list shows information messages, warning messages, error messages and audit messages. The operator can use the diagnostics
buttons to clear the messages in the list. There are two types of diagnostics
buttons:
Clear
 and
Clear All
.
When the operator presses the
Clear
 button, the selected message is cleared. When the operator presses the
Clear All
 button, all the messages in the system, including those in the currently selected list, are cleared.
TIP:
The default [DIAGNOSTICS] graphic display contains a Diagnostics list and the Clear and Clear All
Diagnostics
buttons. You can use the [DIAGNOSTICS] display as is, or modify the appearance of the buttons in the display. Or, you can create your own graphic display containing a Diagnostics list and
Diagnostics
buttons that you create.
