3.5 Notes on the easyscreen.ini
As of SINUMERIK Operate V4.7, the easyscreen.ini has been extended by the entries
described in this section. The easyscreen.ini can be found in the
[System Siemens directory]
/
cfg directory.
Help screen start position
Entry in easyscreen.ini:
[GENERAL]
HlpPicFixPos=true
Note:
The start position of help displays is positioned at the configured pixel position independent of
the resolution (default=true).
Elongation behavior, default line height and line spacing
Entry in easyscreen.ini:
[GENERAL]
SymmetricalAspectRatio=false
DefaultLineHeight=18
DefaultLineSpacing=3
Notes:
● The "SymmetricalAspectRatio" entry determines whether the same aspect ratio is used in
the X and Y direction when adapting a configuration to a specific screen resolution.
– "false" (default): Fields and graphics are shortened in widescreen resolution in the Y
direction (asymmetrical elongation in relation to 640x480). For example, a square
configured in 640x480 is shortened vertically for a widescreen panel and becomes a
rectangle.
– "true": The same aspect ratio is used in the X and Y direction and fields and graphics
retain their originally configured proportions in relation to 640x480. For example, a
square configured in 640x480 remains a square in a widescreen panel.
● The entries "DefaultLineHeight" and "DefaultLineSpacing" can be used to specify the
default line height (default: 18 pixels) and the default line spacing (default: 3 pixels) in
relation to 640x480. They only take effect when no Y position or height is specified in the
configuration for the position of the short text or the input/output field.
