3.3.5 Changing the Attributes of an Object
The attributes of any object can be changed as long as the Graphics Security Lock control is turned off. This is one
of the controls on the graphics plate control block and it can only be changed from the graphics plate Control Block
screen (see Section 2.8.1). You will not be able to alter the appearance or attributes of any object if this control is
turned on.
The attributes are controlled from an Attributes window. To open the Attributes window of an object, right click once
({) on the object. The GDM Attributes window of the legacy IQ P.I.P. from our earlier examples is shown in Figure
3.19 below:
Fig. 3.19 The GDM Attributes Window for a Legacy IQ P.I.P.
This is a fairly simple Attributes window. You can select which GDM will be displayed by selecting the IQ component
in the top list box and you can set the colors of the various components of the GDM at the bottom. A palette of 15
standard colors is available and are listed below:
1 Variable 6 Brown 11 Bright Cyan
2 Green 7 Grey 12 Bright Red
3 Cyan 8 Dark Grey 13 Bright Magenta
4 Red 9 Bright Blue 14 Yellow
5 Black 10 Bright Green 15 White
The variable color is a custom color that you can create by mixing various amounts of red, green and blue. It is
set in the graphics plate control block (the graphics plate version) where it is referred to as the “Variable Palette”
color. See Section 2.8.2 for details. There is only one variable color. Changing it affects all objects which use the
variable color.
