In Codesys it is possible to customize the keypad or numpad elements with the use of the open "VisuDialogs.library.
This library can also be downloaded via our forge, CODESYS Examples: VisuDialogs
The lib "Library Manager" can be found (per default installation) here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\3S CODESYS\CODESYS\Projects\Visu\Dialogs\VisuDialogs.library
Steps:
- Open the Library with Codesys
- The dialogs in the library can be easily customized (color, font, size, etc.).
After the customization, the user has to save/install the library into the Codesys Library Repository (Command: Save Project and Install in the Library Repository)
Best practice:
Save the modified library under a new name and do not overwrite the existing default library!Open the Project Information (Menu Project\Project Information) and modify the entries for 'Title', as well as the 'Default namespace'/'Placeholder' name - depending on the used Codesys Version!
- Add the new library to a project ( Adding a Library to the Repository, then use the Command: Add Library in the Library Manger within the project)
- Select the new Dialogs in the Visualization Manager from the Tab: Dialog Settings "Settings for user management dialogs".
