6.4.3 Search function for images
Search sequence
The expanded search function for images (bitmaps) in HMI Embedded sl can also be used
for images in the "Expand user interface" system.
If HMI Embedded WIN32 (ShopMill/ShopTurn) is installed together with HMI Advanced on a
single hardware platform, a relevant data management path can be preset.
If a data management path is defined, it is prioritized and processed before the currently
selected directory in order that HMI Embedded WIN32 and HMI Advanced access the same
images.
The new search mechanism also includes the directories of the data management path that
are of relevance for "Expand user interface", and the possible image archives (cus.arj,
cma.arj, cst.arj).
The search mechanism always searches for the individual files first, before searching
possible archives. Consequently, the search sequence for images is as follows:
● Individual image before archive (.bin files are searched for before .bmp files). Once the
search of the individual files has been completed, the archives containing a single file
(.bi_, then .bm_) are searched.
● Bitmap name with path followed by bitmap name without path
