|---|---|
| Width | Width of the pipeline |
| Color | Color of the pipeline inside.
This configurator sets the initial value of the ColorItem property. |
| Border width | Pipeline border width. (in pixels). |
| Border color | Pipeline border color. |
| Radius | Radius of the pipeline curve (in pixels). |
| Streaming | The flow pattern drawing selection defined in the "Pattern" configurator.
The flow is enabled only for pipeline of the "Horizontal", "Vertical" and "Knee" types. Cannot be used for "Shape T" and "Cross" types. no streaming - The flow is disabled.
obsolete regime - The flow is enabled. This mode is compatible with the old version of the PROMOTIC system (PROMOTIC 6). The flow pattern images drawn in grey tones (including monochromatic) are rendered with the background color lighting, the images drawn using another color palette are rendered unchanged.
pattern without change - The flow is enabled. The flow pattern images are rendered unchanged. This setting is suitable for flow pattern (images), intended for no change rendering or for patterns created as transparent images. Some predefined patterns/images are supplied with the PROMOTIC system in the SVG format, created on a transparent background.
auto pattern change - The flow is enabled. The brightness of the flow pattern is customized for the background color. This setting is suitable for flow patterns (images) created as transparent images. |
| Pattern | Image of the stream pattern.
This configurator sets the initial value of the StreamFile property. It is recommended to always use the path with #pmres: or #appres:. Macro expression can be used for input (it is evaluated while the window is opening). - If the pattern is an empty string, then it is not displayed.
- Can be used the preset stream patters which are supplied in the PROMOTIC system in the #pmres:Img folder - see Stream - Images. Except these patterns it can be used any other pattern (file with image in the svg, png, jpg, bmp ... format).
- The pattern is expanded into the whole area of the pipeline and therefore the pattern has to be created so as it is bound smoothly to itself.
- The image must be always created so that it is oriented to the horizontal pipeline by its pattern. If this image is used in the vertical pipeline, then it is rotated by 90° before its expansion automatically.
- Each period (see StreamPeriod) the image is moved by 3 pixels, and therefore it is appropriate to use the images width of 9 or more pixels (the height can be whichever). |
| Placement | Placement of the stream pattern to the pipeline section.
Center to width
Multiply to width
Stretch to width |
| Direction | Direction of the stream.
This configurator sets the initial value of the StreamDirection property. Macro expression can be used for input (it is evaluated while the window is opening). 0 = Stopped
1 = Streamed from the left
2 = Streamed from above
4 = Streamed from the right
8 = Streamed from below |
| Period | The period of the stream in seconds and it indirectly specifies the stream rate. The smaller it is, the faster the stream is. The movement is formed by moving the image. This movement is performed always after elapsing the stream period and the size of the movement is 3 pixels; and therefore it is appropriate to use the images width of 9 or more pixels (the height can be whichever).
This configurator sets the initial value of the StreamPeriod property. Macro expression can be used for input (it is evaluated while the window is opening). -1 = Stopped
