Hi List
I have just found that foxview does not correctly display the status of a
MCOUT.PAKCRB
a typical bitstate function where an objects colour is based on 2 unrelated bits
use a MCOUT to bring the two bits into 1 word
foxview looks at PAKCRB and using bitstate displays green for either ON red for
both OFF
(to reduce my options I actually use visibilities displaying a green tick for
either ON and a red cross for both OFF)
foxview seems to only follow the first bit
if I connect the MCOUT.PAKCRB to a MCIN.II01 then use the MCIN PAKCIN
everything works fine
I have noticed the type differences where PAKCRB is a packed boolean ?? and
PAKCIN is a packed long.
I would be surprised if this has never worked since 6.2 / FV 99.2
but the problem is confirmed on 6.5.4 / FV9.0.2 and 8.4.2 / FV10.2.1
xref informs me I use this technique 550 times so I do need to know if its me
or FoxView
