Additional controls may be developed and added to your StampPlot
interface. The controls (ActiveX, or ocx) are specially designed to interact
with StampPlot.
 | Here is a list of features:
 | Run in threads to work very quickly and isolated from StampPlot normal
processing. |
 | New control interface allow quick and more intuitive
configuration of
controls. |
 | Designing new controls for StampPlot configuration and macro building
is simple with the right programming knowledge and software. |
 | Controls are accessible in the same fashion as the 'built in' or
intrinsic StampPlot controls. |
 | Can be added via a separate installation. |
 | Controls can add data to queue or poll StampPlot values for FAST
updating.
|
 | Selected control values can be automatically saved and
recalled from the Windows Registry with the !SSET and !GSET StampPlot
instructions.
|
|
 | We, or others, can develop new controls for:
 | Different or faster plotting |
 | New plot interfaces for indication or control |
 | 'Packaged' control panels for unique scenarios |
 | New interfaces to other data mediums (i.e. - Bluetooth, USB, etc) |
 | Specialized graphic representations of processes or data. |
 | One more way to use your imagination with StampPlot!
|
|
 | Installed Sample Control - Channel Monitor:
 | With this version, a new control is installed as a sample and for your
use! The control, shown in this interface can be used to very
quickly see updated analog values, and set a setpoint with indicator.

|
 | For Developer Licensed users, the Object Editor lists the available
controls in the Windows Systems directory, StampPlot subdirectory:

|
 | By clicking on the control name, the control will be displayed.
You may receive several warning messages to ensure a possible rogue
control doesn't catch you off-guard.
|
 | Simply drag the NAME of the control to an available area on the
StampPlot background.
|
 | The StampPlot will display a list of properties and values which may
be configured and used with StampPlot.

|
 | By clicking down the list, you can see the current values and
modify. Each property may be a text value, drop down list, a check
box, or a 'special use' with a button to press. A 'tip' is also
provided for each property.
|
 | The values may be used as any StampPlot values:
!POBJ obj5.Auto Update = 1
|
 | The user tip, update value, and event code may be written as with any
control.

 | For specifics on using this control, please click HERE.
The help file may also be seen by clicking on the "Help"
property in the Object Editor.
|
 | The control's Visual Basic files are available for those
Developer Licensed users wishing to start creating their own controls
for work, fun or profit(??). This code is in VB6, and while it's
possible to create ActiveX control in many languages, we only deal with
Visual Basic 6 at this time. Please join and ask for more details
on our SelmaWare Yahoo User Group.
If you would like a copy of the source code, Email support@selmaware.com
with proof of your Developer's License - User Name & Code or a
screen shot of your StampPlot 'About' window. Please use an
appropriate subject line.
Email us either directly or via our user group if you have ideas for additional
controls.
We are also happy to discuss consulting for specialized controls.
