15.10.6    Save Dependant ViewDAQs

Save only the opened dependant windows of the Current Window with Save Dependant ViewDAQs. When this display group is opened, all dependants will open. The dependants can be closed individually.

Note - Dependant Windows are those opened using Popup Dependant. These Dependents are always on top of their parent and close when the parent closes.

1.      Open the Parent Window. If the parent window already has dependants windows, they will open also.

2.      Open any additional dependant windows you want to add to this group using
File -> Open Display Group -> Popup Dependant Display Group
.

a.      Or Right Click -> Open Display Group -> Popup Dependent Display Group

Note – if you use Open Display Group, these are considered  “other” display groups and not dependant.

3.      Modify the size, position and displayed graphic in each window.

4.      Optionally, use Style Options and Window Options to hide menu bars, tool bars, etc.

5.      Optionally, use ViewDAQ Options to define exit password level, give new titles and rename the windows.

6.      Login and a user with ViewDAQ Level = 127

7.      From the window that will be the parent, select from the menu bar
 File->Save ViewDAQs -> Save Dependant ViewDAQs
