The Tab Style Templates project (named "Tab_Style_Include") is a system project that includes a set of templates styled for the Windows 7 environment.
When a new Citect SCADA project is created, the Tab_Style_Include project is automatically incorporated as an included project. This means the project's templates are available for implementation when creating your graphics pages in Graphics Builder.
As well as including a graphics page template for creating plant mimics, the project includes predefined Process Analyst and alarm templates (with or without the equipment tree-view panel), a set of file templates for displaying text, Rich Text Format and HTML files.
Each type of page type has the same tab-styled navigation and alarm menus, providing a consistent "look and feel" across an entire project. The project also supports multi-monitor displays, allowing you to simultaneously display several graphics pages across several computer screens.
Note: Avoid making modifications to the Tab Style Template project for use as a runtime project. A Citect SCADA upgrade will install a new version of the project, which will overwrite any changes you make to the project.
