How to add limit value to variable by Editor wizard?

[milosh]

Hi all.
I would like to make internal bool variable with Limit Value[1] and Limit Value [2] activated and with limit value text.
How to add Limit value text to variable limit?
I have add-in Editor wizard for creating variables, but I'm not sure how to set limit values and texts?

Thanks in advance,
MK

Hi,

the variable has a LimitValueCollection. Create a new LimitValue, set the text and add it to the collection.

Thanks a lot.
But which method to use for creating limit value, and set text?

pseudo code:
IVariable var = prj.VariableCollection.Create(name, drv, ChannelType.SystemDriverVariable, tip);
if (var != null) // varijabla nije postojala i kreirana je uspešno
{
var.Identification = "identification text";
ILimitValueCollection limitCollection = var.LimitValueCollection;
// ??? how to add limit text
}

}

I found solution:

var.GetEditorLimitValue(1).Text = limitText; // limit 1

var.GetEditorLimitValue(1).IsInAlarmMessageList = true;

var.GetEditorLimitValue(1).IsToAcknowledge = true;

There is also one interesting thing...
If you try to put limit color
var.GetEditorLimitValue(1).Color= Color.Red;
In editor it set as Automatic (black)

If you put:
var.GetEditorLimitValue(1).Color= 16711680; // color Red in hex #ff0000, converted to int
In editor it is Blue.

But when you put
var.GetEditorLimitValue(1).Color= 255; // hex for Blue #0000ff
In editor it is red

Maybe you have some good idea how to set limit value color?

Here is situation like in Java...0-7 bits red, 8-15 bits green, 16-23 bits blue component...
