Front Panel Options

Cache

The configuration of the Front Panel is saved and restored for the next launch. This configuration could be reset by deleting the .cache/frontpanelstate.properties in the application output folder.

The saved properties are: the zoom, the fit, the interpolation, and the device coordinates.

Properties

The configuration of the Front Panel can be configured through properties.

Some of the properties are used by the cache. Defining these properties will overrule the cache. In other words, the cache will not be used for these properties.

However, it is possible to define a default value for the very first launch of the Front Panel (or when the cache has been deleted). It can be done by defining a property with the same name but with the .default suffix.

Please refer to the dedicated sections (SDK 6 or SDK 5) to know how to define options.

Option	Chapter	Aim	Cached
`ej.fp.project`	Installation	Specify a local Front Panel project to avoid rebuilding VEE Port. Only available before Architecture 8 and before UI Pack 14.3.0.	false
`ej.fp.hil`	Classpath	Run the Front Panel in the same VM as the standard mocks.	false
`ej.fp.display.flushVisualizer`	Flush Visualizer	Export all the frames drawn on the display and list the drawings done for each frame.	false
`ej.fp.brs.drawnColor`	Drawn Region(s)	Identify the drawn regions for each frame.	false
`ej.fp.brs.restoredColor`	Restored Region(s)	Identify the restored regions for each frame.	false
`ej.fp.brs.dirtyColor`	Dirty Region(s)	Identify the regions not fully filled by the drawings.	false
`ej.fp.zoom`	Zoom	Set the zoom of the device at startup.	true (`ej.fp.zoom.default`)
`ej.fp.zoom.fit`	Fit	Set whether the device is fitted to the Front Panel bounds at startup. In other words if the zoom changes when the user resizes the frame or the other way around.	true (`ej.fp.zoom.fit.default`)
`ej.fp.zoom.interpolate`	Interpolation	Set whether the device is drawn with interpolation when zoomed in or out at startup.	true (`ej.fp.zoom.interpolate.default`)
`ej.fp.frame.coordinates`	Device Coordinates	Set the location of the Front Panel frame at startup.	true (`ej.fp.frame.coordinates.default`)
