Touch variable to show trend

[spilleravr]

Hi guys,

 

I need some advice.

 

I want to touch a temperature variable and want a trend (how did the temp change) to pop up on the screen on top of other variables.

 

Is it possible to bring variables/trends infront of anything else?

 

If not, how should I continue to achive this goal?

 

 

Cheers,

You typically can't put HMI items in front of other items.

 

I would recommend a screen that the HMI jumps to when you press a button and then use small elements for the other variables.

Is there any way to run a trend in the background, so when you first "open" the trend, it is already populated with the historical data?  What I'm seeing is that I can "open" a trend, but it only starts logging when it is opened.  If you close it to do something else, the history is lost.
