Fig. 5 shows the example man-machine interface animated graphics element that represents the groove 500 that includes measured quantity of material 504.In this example embodiment, the amount that the animated graphics of groove 500 is configured to being included in groove shows.Groove 500 comprises cell body 502 and material 504.Note, a certain amount of material 504 is represented by the step shade of the inside of cell body 502.In this example embodiment, cell body 502 is that static graphics element and material 504 are motion graphics elements.
Generally, the motion graphics of like device represents amount of substance by the change in elevation of rectangle, is equivalent to bar chart.But in this example, the shape of cell body 502 is not rectangle but comprises conical lower portion.Therefore, a certain amount of material 504 in cell body 502 can not represent with the rectangle of change in elevation.Note, in this example, the vertical size of material 504 is associated with the amount of substance (or volume) being included in groove 500.
Fig. 6 shows expression each layer and parts from the example man-machine interface animated graphics element of the groove that includes measured quantity of material of Fig. 5.In this example, implement to represent the animated graphics element from the groove of Fig. 5 with two parts: motion graphics element 504 and static graphics element 502, wherein each have a shown shape.
Fig. 7 shows the method being used to indicate from the variable quantity of the material in the groove of Fig. 5.In this example, the material 504 in cell body 502 reduces gradually.Show that the motion graphics element representation material shown in 700 is in the low level place of the level than described in Fig. 5, and show that 702 illustrate that material is in still lower level.Noting, is by simply the vertical size of the gradient halt in motion graphics element being modified to carry out for these amendments of motion graphics element.
Note, showing in 702, amount of substance is reduced to the point in the sloping portion that this material is included in cell body 502 completely gradually.Because the shadow region of feature bottom represents at this amount of substance.This is to realize by the gradient halt in the vertical size in mobile dynamic component dynamically.By mobile gradient halt, can show irregular shape at different fill levels place in simple mode.
This technology makes the man-machine interface can be by circulating and effectively show brokenly the material of the difference amount in the container being shaped with storer and processor with minimizing.The fill level data that receive from container can convert gradient halt easily to, then, can with to most of graphic process unit can with gradient stuffing function the fill level in the container being shaped is described brokenly.
Described is below to arrange " static state " addition method to " dynamically " figure to maintain the genuine mode of all risk insurance under the prerequisite not sacrificing performance.Consider to have direct relation existing between performance and cost of products between direct relation and workinprocess cost and earning capacity (from raising profit or concerning reducing costs the demand of growth of ability)---such method is very valuable.
1) fill animation by graphic designer (upwards high as much as possible along chain) with the level of utilizing the mode of the control system data that correctly connected with line by deviser to carry out the use gradient halt of irregular object.
Traditionally, deviser changes height or width changes the impact of (or progress bar variation) to provide level.But the method is only applied to rectangle.In the time being applied to the object that holds the irregular shaping on figure that is positioned over irregular shaping, only can making the object avalanche of top and do not rest in the scope of container.In addition,, if use gradient, diffusion also can avalanche, and can not simulate the attribute of the optics luminous effect at liquid top place.
Other devisers use the height of vector mask and raising or reduction vector mask.But, from aspect of performance by, shielding is expensive operation.In addition, need two independently path objects (for original-shape, and for shielding---this has increased plays up performance and the required storage of operational shape and the storage of object self).In addition, if use gradient, diffusion " is cut ", remaining not expecting and unlifelike view result about liquid.
Except these traditional methods, top fill level gradient halt (on fill level to the opaque point of all colours and for completely transparent point of sample color) has generated content and has met the edge true to nature (, having retained the optical characteristics of water ingress of air) in above-mentioned space together with non-constant width diffusion.This method has solved 5 all problems of listing in above-mentioned classic method, has obtained the benefit of performance and graphical appearance simultaneously.
2) static graphics on motion graphics is carried out to layering with the change color in the diagrammatic representation (indicating status-lamp ON/OFF represents the different colours of different conditions etc.) of display device object.Traditionally, compound path is dynamic.But, draw compound path (especially text based vector sum picture circle etc. thing) efficiency very low.
Other deviser's show or hide still images are to provide the explanation of change color.But, need to create a large amount of static objects and the number of colors based on desired is played up independently.In addition, color can not be dynamic.Therefore, every kind of shape need to create statically for the independent image of every kind of color and before using and is loaded in graphical human-machine system.
Except these traditional methods, deviser can " detach " and look like dynamic shape and make it as spiraling or swimming in the image of the excessive static state of simple dynamic rectangular top that can color.Rectangle is easy to dynamically change.The α passage (transparent channel) of the illiteracy plate of static object can make to demonstrate the color of the color background color drawing simply.Result is dynamically to have promoted performance, maintains fabulous outward appearance simultaneously.Only latent defect for the first classic method is: the Actual path of resting shape is not dynamic, and the object that path does not change comprise control equipment (seeing through all LED(light emitting diodes that color text or symbol show)) and the static tay (as hotel's vacancy/not vacancy mark) of its text change color, making this novel method is valuable for the static text of playing up in non-variation background.
3) compound path of simplification color animation: when go up rendered object than old master (Adobe Illustrator) more than Austria time, every paths is its object, therefore with line connect each color to as if the plodding and more performance load of these needs to manage individually these additional objects.
Alternatively, deviser can be by all different combination of shapes to compound path, and this makes dynamically to control using all these paths as single pahtfinder hard instead of many different shapes.This method has promoted performance and has reduced design time and reduced the risk of wiring error.
4) for the direct mutual diagnosis figure of equipment: traditionally, the logix that deviser or computer programmer need to create in controller is connected to check controller diagnostic message on man-machine interface screen with proxy data.
Alternatively, deviser builds figure in advance with following embedding behavior: this embedding behavior can directly communicate with control system data with line tie point in the situation that without user.If automatically find unavailable, deviser can simply the pictorial element of building in advance be added to they in control system to the display screen of locking equipment, and this figure is pointed to the equipment with data routing explanation.Then,, in the time disposing, graphic element has approx indication diagnosis information and affects the required all the elements of this equipment in inside.Secondly, in order to make to carry out work in the situation of not disturbing operational system, also data are compared to minimize the quantity of independent request, also limit refresh rate simultaneously and make it enough slowly with introducing problem in control system not.
Foregoing description and the figure teaching that is associated optimal mode of the present invention.Claims have been specified scope of the present invention.Note, some aspects of this optimal mode may not fall in scope of being specified by claim of the present invention.It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that and can combine in every way above-mentioned feature to form multiple change programme of the present invention.Therefore, the invention is not restricted to above-mentioned concrete embodiment, and only limited by claims and their equivalent.
