This dialog configures a list.
Id
The number under which the list is stored internally. This field is read-only and empty when you create a new list.
Name
The name of the list. The name is used as the title of the browser window when the list is displayed, and as the label when the list appears as a menu item in a menu.
Comment
The comment field is for free use by the integrator/system administrator. It serves solely to document the configuration. Information can be entered here, e.g. the purpose of the element, notes on the connected hardware, room/floor and other special features. The content of this field has no significance for X2.
Display Type
Here you set how the list is displayed on the screen: as a list, as a list with increased spacing or in tile mode. The field can also be left empty, in which case the display mode is controlled by the global system setting.
Menu Type
Here you control whether the menu is available when this list is displayed. Leave the field empty to use the global system setting.
Auto Hide
Some control types can be hidden automatically depending on the state of the control (e.g. an alarm when no alarm message is pending). Select the checkbox to enable this behavior. If the checkbox is left clear, the controls are always displayed.
This setting has no effect on most controls, e.g. switches etc.
Icon
Select an icon for the list here. The icon is displayed when the list is shown in a menu or is part of another list.
Adding List Elements
Use the + sign to assign controls or other lists to this list. The elements can then be repositioned within the list by drag and drop.
Notes
A list can be used as a screen page or as a menu. When a list is used as a menu, only elements that can be used as menu items (lists or menu items) are displayed. All other elements are hidden.
