The panel that manages the preview module and docked embedded modules on the unHMI.
The panel handles the preview module, which is a module containing a reduced view of a panel in which the user cannot operate on, but can see the distribution of devices, buttons and widgets. The preview module shows a summarized version of the panel as observed on the main view screen, and provides functionalities to other embedded modules actions.
The preview modules have been added to the HMI to quickly check information about panels that are not displayed in the main module area, but can be if desired by the user, among other functionalities.
The preview module displays the name of the corresponding panel shown on the module, the minimized version of the panel, the default button to reopen the original default panel for the preview module or to save the panel as default, the button with the number of the preview module, and the Save zoom module button to set a particular view port zoom factor and position.
The user can perform various actions when right-clicking the mouse on the button with the number of the preview module. These actions are:
The function to automatically show or hide the command modules when opening or closing a new module on the screen is implemented inside this panel. This function considers the case when the panel or panels are opened with the split mode option active or not.
The function that populates modules with the appropiate data, such as the contextual buttons on the command module area can be found in this panel as well.
The preview module can be hidden or displayed by clicking on the right button of the mouse on the preview module area, and after that selecting the appropiate preview module number.
The preview module is also dockable, adaptable and extensible, i.e. it can be expanded or shrunk.
Keyboard shortcuts have been inserted for the contextual button, which means that a particular module number can be displayed on the central view of the screen using the keys 'ALT+number'. For example ALT+1 opens the module 1 in the central main view, ALT+2 opens the module 2, etc.
