STx display items can display one dialog item and one or more graph items. Display items can also display menu bars like this:
Menu bars
There are two types of menus supported by STx:
- a menu bar displayed at the top of a window and accessed with the mouse or an ALT+KEY combination.
- a context menu, displayed when the user clicks the right-hand mouse button and tailored to the current context.
Note that menus are also called popups in STx. Hence the commands are ADDPOPUP, DELETEPOPUP and so on.
Default Graph Settings
The display item also defines the default graph settings used to initialize all new graphs.
