3.2.9. GroupObject
The object inherits from IdentificationObjectA and SubCollectionObjectA. It contains:
Property Type Description
Father IdentificationObjectA The father of the object. For the button itself, for instance it is the board
that it is lying on. For the window and the page (as well as for the ”free”
objects – i.e. a picture, font or a color) the value is NoObject. The
property is for reading only.
Child CollectionObjectA It is the collection of all child objects of IdentificationObjectA type. The
property is for read only. The value is default.
Name string*50 The object name. The property is for reading only. The value is default.
Tag uint Free space where anyone, while the program is running, can note
something. For the virtual world itself it has no importance. For the
design environment it is forbidden. At the beginning the value is zero
here.
Type uint It is the way how the gauge will be displayed. Values 0..from left to
right, 1..from right to left, 2..from down to up, 3..from up to down. To
insert different values is not checked, what will appear is not defined.
Method Parameters Description
PosMe2Parent Param x uint
Param y uint Converts the entered coordinates x, y relative to the object to
coordinate relative to the parent object. If the father of the object is not
defined (the value of the property Father is NoObject) then the
coordinates remain the same.
PosParent2Me Param x uint
Param y uint Converts the entered coordinates x, y relative to the parent object to
relative coordinate to the top object (i.e. relative to the window or the
page) If the father of the object is not defined (the value of the property
Father is NoObject) then the coordinates relative to the top object
remain the same as the coordinates relative to father of the object.
PosParent2Top Param x uint
Param y uint Converts the entered coordinates x, y relative to the parent object to
relative coordinate to the top object (i.e. relative to the window or the
page) If the father of the object is not defined (the value of the property
Father is NoObject) then the coordinates relative to the top object
remain the same as the coordinates relative to father of the object.
PosScreen2Top Param x uint
Param y uint Converts the entered coordinates x, y relative to the entire screen to
coordinate relative to the top object (i.e. relative to the window or the
page)
PosTop2Parent Param x uint
Param y uint Converts the entered coordinates x, y relative to the top object (i.e.
relative to the window or the page) to coordinates relative to the parent
of the object. If the father of the object is not defined (the value of the
property Father is NoObject) then the coordinates relative to object
remain the same as the coordinate relative to the father of the object.
PosTop2Screen Param x uint
Param y uint Converts the entered coordinates x, y relative to the top object (i.e.
relative to a window or page) to coordinates relative to the entire
screen.
