  1. Actually solved the rounding up problem by using a rather complex expression for Hours and Minutes. Just gonna leave it here if someone else might need it.  For Hours: If (My_Seconds % 3600) / 60 >= 30 Then  If My_Seconds / 3600 - 1 < 0 Then 0 Else My_Seconds / 3600 - 1 Else My_Seconds / 3600 For Minutes: If My_Seconds % 60 > 30 Then  If (My_Seconds % 3600) / 60 - 1 < 0 Then 0 Else (My_Seconds % 3600) / 60 - 1 Else (My_Seconds % 3600) / 60   Also, tweaked the expression for Hours, so that it will continue to count after 24 hrs. Cheers.
  2. The reason why I used derived tags is to insert and format all text within a single text display. I think it's a pain arranging the numeric displays and the text displays, because what you see when editing is not exactly displayed in the client. But thank you for the suggestion, I might just make it like this.   EDIT: It still rounds up when I put it on derived tags. However, using it on the numeric display doesn't. I will stick to using the numeric display and just take my time in editing. Thank you very much!
  3. Hi guys! I have a problem with derived tags in factorytalk view. I used the derived tags to read an input tag (unit in seconds), and convert it to HH:MM:SS format. The problem is, when I display the values using text display(insert numeric variable), the HH and MM are rounded up instead of being rounded down. Is there an option to round down the results? Thanks!  
  4. I have a screen that opens up, but it does not load properly as seen on the 1st screenshot. All other screens are ok.
  5. Hi guys. I have a problem with a graphic display in my client. It does not load whenever called (either from a push button, or as a start-up display). Display shows whenever I hover the mouse to some buttons, like in the picture attached. Do you know what may seem to be the problem? All other displays do not have this kind of problem.  Also, whenever I open the same display on FactoryTalk View, it encounter problems like, 1)when I scroll, some pieces of graphics are left (see attached) 2) I can't zoom in/out 3) when I click test display, the program will not respond and close. Thanks!   EDIT: Found the solution. I made another graphics, and copied all objects (not duplicate, because in duplicate the problems still exist).  What I want to know now is the problem of the original gfx. Any ideas?
