Toolbox

How do I open the Toolbox?
On the
Menu
bar, click
View > Toolbox
.
The
Toolbox
contains the drawing tools and graphic elements to use when creating the screens for an HMI project. The graphic elements are grouped into categories. Search the
Toolbox
to find a specific graphic element or types of graphic elements.
Use the
Toolbox
to:
  • Draw free-form and one-dimensional objects, such as lines, rectangles, and ovals.
  • Add graphic elements, Add-On Graphics, and images to a screen.
  • Search for a graphic element or Add-On Graphic.
  • Tip:
    The spacing around content within a graphic element may differ on
    View Designer
    screens that are targeted to different HMI devices. This is due to the different HMI devices having different DPI values. However, text wrapping for content within a graphic element is usually the same from
    View Designer
    to an HMI device.
