Easy way to copy a MP377 15" panel to a MP277 10"?

[ason]

Hey,
There is 4 panels in the project that i work on now and I use WinCC flex 2008 SP2,

I have made alot of changes in an existing project,

And have one MP377 15" that is up todate,

Now i need to copy everything to some other existing panel
MP277 10"
Mobile 7"
and an other 7" panel that i dont know right now what type it´s.

I did it like this today to update the MP277

• MP277 renamed and change IP adress in Netpro
• Made a copy/past of existing MP377 in manager
• opened netpro and change IP-adress of the new station to the old IP-adress
• Opened the new panel project and change panel type to MP277
• Download to panel

Is there any easier way to do it?

It is the way to do it.
What seems to go wrong ?

The mobile panel 177 is similar to an OP177B, so there are limitations as to archives, scripts, number of screen elements. You may have to check everything and modify to allow the program to compile.

NB. Changing the screen resolution can make the graphics look "funny", especially if you go from big to small.

It went ok, but it take a bit of time to do it,
So just wonder if there is any other way to make the same resultat.

Those panels are in the project already, but i have made alot of changes in MP377 panel
And now i need to copy the changes to the other panels,
so i think that there shouldnt be any problem with script/screen elements,

I have one problem, and can take some screen shot tomorrow,
They use screen navigation, and this is first time i have seen it,
I have tried to find a manual to use it but no luck,

I know how to add screens and move them to right place,
But when i have the last screen in a branch i cant get ride of the "down arrow"
that is used to move to next screen, in the orginal project there isnt any arrow on the last page,
And the last button to right navigate to the alarm-screen.
And on my new screens i cant put a shortcut to alarm, it always but a new button for the shortcut.
I will post screenshot tomorrow

I dont know ow to fix this in screen navigation.

Problem 1:
I have a branch like this



And the 4 button in the last screen in this branch have no function,



When i add a new screen to an other branch i got like this,
"ActivateFistChildscreen" and it´s grayed out so i cant remove it
I did remove the graphic so it looks like it dont have any function
how to get ride of it?



Problem 2:

Button 6 in the navigation bar i have linked to alarm screen
And in screen navigation it looks like this:



But when i try to add this on a new screen (drag the green little box in the corner to alarm screen)

I got a new button with the shortcut, and there is already a shourtcut to an other screen and its grayed out, i cant delete that.
How to fix so i can link to alarm screen?

I hate this screen navigation system.
I make my own, and it is really not so difficult to do with regular buttons.

Yes that is my view also,

We have only rebuild this machine and need to integrate the new functions to old system
And for operators, it is best to look the same as before.
