_RootPanel

According to the desired action there are different data point types for opening and closing of panels. Each UIM registers a data point of this type at the Event manager when starting.

In order to open or close panels all elements of the internal data point within a dpSet() command have to be assigned. For root panel these data points are _RootPanelOrigOn (opened in the original size) or _RootPanelOn (opened in the size of the existing panel).

Data point element Type Description
ModuleName string There is a module name in order to communicate with a module when configuring. The module name is assigned according to the module type (e.g. "Vision_2") automatically when opening and according to the UIM unique. The user may also overwrite this name for already opened modules. If the same module identification occurs several times within a UIM the opening and closing is always referred to the module that is found first with an appropriate name.
FileName string File name of the panel that should be opened.
PanelName string Panel name of the panel that should be opened. Also the panel name can be specified as an argument when opening the panel. If no name was specified the file name of the panel is used.
Parameter dyn_string An arbitrary number of parameters for wild cards. These are assigned in the form of: "dpName.Parameter:_original.._value", makeDynString("Parameter1" [, "Para-meter2", "Para-meter3" ...]). Thus the Parameter1 [, Parameter2, Parameter3...] are assigned to the wild cards $1 [, $2, $3...] .
ManNum unsigned UIM (User-Interface-Manager-) identification. Since there can be several UIMs simultaneously you have to specify in the panel in which UI the panel should be opened. The manager number (ManNum) of the manager ID is used for this purpose since it is unique and is assigned when a UIM starts.
