The Mimic Display
When you display a Mimic, the Mimic is shown in the Document Display Area. If the Mimic is a new Mimic, it will be blank (in Design Mode, it may show rows and columns of dots - this is the Grid which is used for aligning Mimic objects and can be enabled or disabled as required). If you display a Mimic that has already been configured, it may contain graphical and text elements as well as selectable areas that provide functionality, such as hyperlinks and pick action menus.
Depending on the configuration of the Mimic, the permissions allocated to your user account, and the mode in which the Mimic is displayed, you may be able to:
- Access pick action menus and context sensitive menus for Mimic objects by selecting or right-clicking on a Mimic object. The pick action menus provide access to operational features in Run Mode and configuration options in Design Mode.
- Select Mimic objects that have been configured to act as hyperlinks to other displays
- Use the Graphics Tab to access design and operational features for Mimic objects and the Mimic itself.
