Message Window
The message window is used to display errors and warnings that occur for
example after compiling the sequencer. This is not a separate window but is
anchored to the work area. You can toggle the display of the message window on
or off as required. You can also change the size of the message window.
4.3 Settings for the Work Area
To allow you to customize the work area and appearance of the user interface,
S7-Graph has various display modes and settings. Some of the settings are saved
along with the block you are editing.
Display Levels for the Work Area
S7-Graph supports you with four different display levels that you can select with the
menu View:
• Overview display
• Single page display
• Single step display
• Permanent Instructions
Overview Display
At the overview level, the entire system structure with all the sequencers contained
in the FB is displayed. Several sequencers are displayed side by side. This display
level is ideal for configuring the sequencers. At this level, you can specify the
structure of the sequencers and select the numbers, names and comments for
steps and transitions.
The following elements are displayed:
• All the sequencers contained in the FB
• The arrangement of the steps, transitions and branches - however not their
contents
• Depending on the zoom factor, steps and transition names are displayed
• The block comment
