CimGraphControl.Paused (property)

Indicates whether the chart is paused.

Syntax:

Boolean = object.Paused
object.Paused = Boolean

Description:

CimGraphControl.Paused indicates whether the chart is paused. When the chart is paused, series data updates are frozen at the instance when the chart is paused.

When the property is set to False, the chart is not paused.

When the property is set to True, the chart is paused.

The value of this property defaults to False.

Example

The following CimView script excerpts demonstrate how Paused alters the control runtime behavior:

Action: The first three values are set in series A:
cimOleObj.Series.Item("A").Data.Set 0, 1, 201
cimOleObj.Series.Item("A").Data.Set 1, 2, 137
cimOleObj.Series.Item("A").Data.Set 2, 3, 184
Result: The control displays the values.

Action: The chart is paused:
cimOleObj.Paused = True

Action: The first three values are modified in series A:
cimOleObj.Series.Item("A").Data.Set 0, 1, 120
cimOleObj.Series.Item("A").Data.Set 1, 2, 250
cimOleObj.Series.Item("A").Data.Set 2, 3, 98
Result: The control does not display the modified values. It continues to display the original values instead.

Action: The chart is not paused:
cimOleObj.Paused = False
Result: The control displays the modified values.
