Add New Legend

A Legend serves as a visual reference for interpreting icons and colors that indicate system statuses.

To create a Legend, follow the steps below.

  1. In Project Explorer right-click Legend and select Add.
  2. Once a new Legend is added, it can now be Edited, Duplicated or Deleted by right-clicking on the Legend in the Project Explorer.
  3. Configure the layout by editing its Properties.
  4. Add the required Integrated Systems.
  5. Add Drawing Tools to customize the Legend's appearance.
  6. The Toolbox lists the available statuses for each Integrated System that can be placed on the canvas. Each status icon can display a different status from the Status Table.
  7. Drag and drop the desired icon statuses onto the canvas. Their settings can be adjusted in the Properties grid.
  8. Once the icon statuses are dragged onto the canvas, they display color and flashing behavior depending on how the status is configured in that specific Integrated System's settings. To customize these settings, go to the specific Integrated System's setting page and adjust the color and flash options under the Appearance section.
  9. Add Captions or Labels to identify each status.
    Note: The About and Close buttons appear by default, always appear above all other objects, and cannot be deleted.
