than one graphic display of the On Top type is open at once, the
display that has focus, or had the most recent focus, appears on top.
Use the PullForward, PushBack, and SetFocus commands to cycle
through multiple On Top and Overlay screens.
Allowing multiple running copies
Use this option with displays of type Overlay or On Top. Check this
box to allow more than one copy of the graphic to be displayed at
runtime. When this option is not selected, running displays are
brought to the foreground when they are called via the Display
command, rather than a new copy being loaded.
You can also run multiple copies without checking this option, by
using the Display command with different parameter files for each
copy of the display. For example, to display two copies of the same
graphic in different places on the screen you could use these
commands:
Display PID /PLevel1 /Q1
Display PID /PLevel2 /Q2
PID is a display and Level1 and Level2 are parameter files.
For details about parameter files, see “Using a parameter file to replace
tag placeholders” on page 11-38.
If multiple copies or several separate displays are running and one is
hidden behind another, use the SetFocus command to bring the
hidden display forward. For details, see Appendix A, RSView32
commands, or see Help. However, remember that graphic displays of
the On Top type will always be at the front, regardless of which
display has focus.
