So, actually the path for the HMI tag(s) wouldn't work. There just possibly to many HMI tags to give a path to. What I actually would want to do is navigate to a screen with the screen name in the string. Using a button event not a project event. I already have something like 50 project events already ...

With FT ME you can pass a parameter file via PLC string. Is I possible to have a string type data data property definition with the data type in the string? -------------------------------------------

Works great, but I would like the color change to remain until the popup opens not on release. "Unknown when it is open" -------------------------------------------

Several of the popup's are reuse displays and it take 4 seconds for a PB to work, but the Caption [X] is much faster. Unfortunately, there is no handshake witx the X or the OK button on the keyboard. -------------------------------------------

Hi Keith, yes, the 5 PV5K's have the same program loaded into them so the system CurrentScreeName is scrolling through the screen names to the PLC. If I could have some way like IP or PV name with 5 events I could control the screen changes. By the way "MAIN" screen is different for each a project ...

Why is there not an event for on open and on close. What only a touch event. -------------------------------------------

I tried to remove the caption bar a use a button, but the popup are reuse displays and there is a 4 second delay using a button. I also tried to overlay a button over the [X] but that causes an error. -------------------------------------------

I am willing to give you an AOI for a DM262, but it would be in Version 37 and uses functions not available in v20. -------------------------------------------

After certain version updates I have had to re-create the ActiveX. Instead of just creating a new runtime I would l delete the ActiveX and then add it again. -------------------------------------------

I the Logix Designer software under File you can generate report. Be careful of your selections as it is easy to use a ream on paper.
