Borders¶

All widgets can show a border surrounding their bounding box. The border look is controlled by the properties Border Color, Border Width and Border Style.

The codes for these borders are:

Code	Value	Comment
0	None
1	Line Style
2	Raised Style
3	Lowered Style
4	Etched Style
5	Ridged Style
6	Button Raised Style
7	Button Pressed Style
8	Dot Style
9	Dash Style
10	Dash Dot Style
11	Dash Dot Dot Style
12	Title Bar Style	Title is the value of the Name property. Title background uses Background Color.
13	Group Box Style	Title is the value of the Name property. Border and title background use Background Color. Title foreground uses Border Color.
14	Round Rectangle Background	Applies Background Color of the widget.
15	Empty Background

PV-sensitivity

When a widget is backed by a PV, the border transforms depending on the PV state.

Connected: No decorations
Connected, but no value (yet): Dashed pink border around the widget
Disconnected: Solid pink border around the widget and the label ‘Disconnected’ in the top left corner (space-permitting)
Expired: Blinking solid pink border around the widget

Alarm-sensitivity

If the widget has the border property Alarm Sensitive set, the border transforms to a 2 pixel wide alarm border when the PV is in alarm state.

Minor Alarm: Solid orange border around the widget
Major Alarm: Solid red border around the widget

If the PV is connected to a Yamcs parameter, the mapping is done as follows:

WATCH, WARNING, DISTRESS → MINOR
CRITICAL, SEVERE → MAJOR
