In foxdraw on one of your main graphics that now mistakenly closes...if you select File and then display properties, does it say it is a base display or an overlay. close -all only closes overlays....so your graphic would have to in-advertantly have become a overlay by mistake. -----Original Message----- From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kevin Fitzgerrell Sent: Sunday, February 20, 2011 3:03 PM To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [foxboro] Resetting graphics optimization for Foxview? Follow up? I put in a CAR and it was denied as being an enhancement request. I turned in a PER and last week I got the standard response that Invensys has no plans to address this issue. I still consider this and other HMI issues a very high priority - we're currently reviewing possible alternatives for HMI and control systems.
