Switch
A Switch element controls the contents of an area of the page that is bounded by the Switch.
The Switch element can contain any element except for another Switch or an Alarm Display. Each element in
the Switch occupies the complete area of the Switch.
Elements can only be added to a Switch by selecting it, and using the right-click menu, or by selecting
Add
in
the Switch Navigation pane on the left.
Any number of elements can be included in a Switch, but each element must have an assigned condition.
When running on the device, the Switch will display only one of those elements. The element displayed is the
first in the list for which the condition evaluates to true. If no conditions evaluate as true, no element is
displayed.
