Creating FrsModules_Theme Dynamos

We are switching to HCD graphics, so I am using the FrsModules_Theme dynamos and of course I need to make some custom ones.  It has been a long, long, long time since I have created any dynamos so I thought I would just copy one and modify it.  I could not access the form after coping one of the dynamos, so that did not work.  I then created a dynamo using the expert, but I could not find the form behind that dynamo either.  Can anyone tell me how and where to find the forms behind these dynamos?  I would like my custom dynamos to have the exact same look and feel as the FrsModules_Theme dynamos so it would be so much easier to start there.  This is version 11.3.1.

Thanks,

Kevin

  • The forms and code behind the built-in DeltaV dynamos are hidden inside the system files. They are protected from viewing and editing. You can create your own custom forms in User.fxg and have your custom dynamos call them from their _Edit() Visual Basic events.
  • I made frs Fieldbus dynamos when we went to HCD graphic design. I just copied the dynamos I needed, ungrouped and changed the font in properties. Then regroup and saved the new dynamo for future use.
