4.2.6.1. Changing the Order of Objects
The object order in PM Designer is the order in which the selection cursor moves the input focus from one object to the
next within a screen. Usually the order proceeds from left to right and from top to bottom in a screen. In the model with
programmable keys such as 037-LSK, the Data Entry Object receives input focus in the specified order by clicking
direction keys. In touch panel, you can use function button to select a data entry object with the order number previous or
next to the current selection.
The object order is also the display order. If the screen contains overlapping the objects, change the order will change the
display sequence of the objects. The objects that come later in the order are always displayed on top of any overlapping
objects that precede them in the order.
