Hi All
First time so we'll see how it goes. I'm using Siemens Wincc V6.2.
In a screen i have a large "GraphicObject" that shows an overview of a production line. I would like to be able to press the (Touch)screen in various areas of the graphic object and go to sub screens that apply to that part of the machine. I have tried pushbuttons and rectangles with the fill set to transparrent, but i find that i can only activate on the border of the square or button in this case. If i select a colour so i can see the button it works but then obscures the image beneath. If i put the button behind the image it will not work either. Currently i am creating small bitmaps of each section of the machine and overlaying them on the main graphic image, and using the "events" "Press left" property of the inserted graphic to do the job. It works but takes forever.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards
