“Use unicode strings”

: The visualization encodes strings in Unicode.

“Use CurrentVisu variable”

: The application recognizes and uses the global variable ‎VisuElems.CurrentVisu‎ of type ‎STRING‎.

It contains the name of the active visualization at application runtime.

In the application code, the variable can be read in order to retain the name of the active visualization. The variable can be written to for calling a switch of visualizations. The switch is done at the same time on all display devices.

Example: A TargetVisu display variant and several WebVisu display variants are active. When the CurrentVisu variable is written to, all display variants switch to this visualization.

Requirement: The application includes a visualization that calls other visualizations.

“Support client animations and overlay of native elements”

: Visualization elements can be animated by the client.

This function is possible only for browsers of a CODESYS WebVisu and in a CODESYS TargetVisu. However, CODESYS TargetVisu has to support this function. Then, additional properties are visible in the visualization elements.

Moreover, native elements, which are integrated in the visualization (for example, a web browser), can be overlaid with native CODESYS elements. This is not possible with CODESYS versions before 3.5.16.0.

NOTE:

The following restriction applies currently:

In the case of nested frames combined with a scaling, elements can be positioned in a slightly different manner.
