1.1.4 Main Features
Graphics
Desigo CC graphics are built using smart objects that know how they are used and
how to represent themselves graphically. The use of smart objects allows users to
create graphics by simply dragging-and-dropping objects onto a page, without
manually binding an object to graphical symbols. Any system object can be
commanded via Graphics with one click.
The Graphics editor also provides a powerful AutoCAD importing tool that allows
the user to select and manipulate layers of AutoCAD drawings both during and
after the import process.
Standardized graphic libraries increasing the engineering efficiency and provide a
distinctive design. Library elements can be customized to the particular project.
Textual Viewer
Both panel-based and workstation-based trending is provided to support control
systems without embedded Trend capabilities.
Trend data is stored in a Microsoft SQL Server database. SQL Server Express is
included with the Desigo CC software and can be upgraded as required.
The Trend Comparison View allows users to time-shift the Trend View to compare
data at different times for quick analysis of changing conditions.
