PLACING CONTAINeR COmPONeNTS ON THe PALeTTe

The Contain Tab offers the following realtime elements: ContainerTank, ContainerVessel,

ContainerPipe, ContainerFill, ContainerBoiler, ContainerKettle. Most of these are simple,

line-drawing representations of containers and can have dynamic properties. Pipe, for instance,

is a configurable horizontal or vertical shape that can be linked to an I/O as an active pipe sec-

tion, changing color as conditions (such as flow) change. When the assigned DataPoint value

crosses the threshold value, the pipe will change to its FillColor. All of the containers include

built-in bar gauges to display the fill level based on the DataPoint value. Set the MaxValue and

MinValue properties to values that correspond to your tank.
