We are currently in the process of writing a GUI Style Guide for our
EDM screens and were wondering if any one else already has such a
document.
I'm sure there are many lessons that people have learnt about the best
way to build good, useable interfaces with EDM and any documents or even
anecdotes about what to do or not to do would be greatly appreciated.
We don't have a style guide, but many of the (MEDM) displays in synApps
tend systematically to use the following color meanings:
foregnd backgnd meaning
color color
-------------------------------------------------
black any static text or drawing
blue any writes to or reads from ioc
black sky blue (button, text entry, etc.)
white green (button) brings up related display
red any exceptional status or action
yellow red (button)
yellow any diagnostic or warning
black purple link
black pink link minus "NPP NMS" attributes
(i.e., a string field whose value specifies a PV
to be linked to; the database will supply the
link attributes and write to the actual link)
other other used to visually connect a set of related PV's
