possible to have separate buttons (for example, pairs Apply/Undo) for the different
logical groups.
Figure 15. Grouping of option buttons.
The following rules should be used in the control
module for the interaction
window:
• Grid size = 0.02
• Text height = 0.1
• Text height for group = 0.08
• Distance to borders = 0.02
• Distance between texts in a group (vertically) = 0
• Distance between groups can vary, yet be at least 0.02
• Straight (aligned) columns in each group
• Check boxes, option buttons and input fields are used for inputs
• Icons can be used for distinct indications. It is also
permitted to use check
boxes and option buttons in the same way as a dynamic input field
• “Apply” / “Undo” buttons when two or more interdependent input
fields. The
buttons should have size 0.3x0.1
• Input fields should be center aligned
• For option buttons and check boxes, the te
xt should be to the right of the
interaction object.
• The caption texts in an operator window should have the height 0.16.
• A value may have a ResetIcon to the right. Sel
ecting the ResetIcon will reset
the value (to initial value) or, in some cases, other reasonable values.
• Color assignment shall follow common guidelines and re
gulations, for example
red for alarm indication, and yellow for warning indication. Use project
constants (cColor) to assign colors to objects.
