Restrictions on Animation
Restrictions on the animation feature are as follows.
 
Restrictions on Animation
Animation cannot be added to Window screens of GP-3200 Series models.

GP4000M and GP4100 Series support Visibility Animation only.
Models that support the Animation feature

When a switch is set up with [Reverse Display] and animation, there is slight delay for it to reverse.

The following differences exist between animation expression operations and D-Script. As a result, calculation results may be different even though you use the same formula.
- Shift operations are an arithmetic shift.
- Logical OR and logical AND in BCD are alculated after a binary conversion.
- The order of precedence for operations is &, ^, |, &&, and then ||.
- The expression is calculated with 64-bit values (-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807), whereas the calculation results are displayed with 32-bit values (-2147483648 to 2147483647). If the calculation exceeds 64-bit values, or the result exceeds 32-bit values, the results will not display properly. If the calculation result of the expression is outside a 32-bit value range, the animation operation is handled as follows.

Less than 32-bit signed range (less than -2147483648)
=> Results in the minimum value of the 32-bit signed range (-2147483648)
More than 32-bit signed range (more than 2147483648)
=> Results in the maximum value of the 32-bit signed range (2147483647)

When Rotation is added to a curved object, it may appear less rounded on the display unit than on the screen editor.

If objects overlap each other on the base layer, Reverse Display does not occur when you touch the overlapped portion. To perform Reverse Display on the overlapped portion, place the objects on the front layer or place them on the base layer and the front layer each.

Even if a window display switch is hidden, its associated popup window will continue to display.

Even if an alarm part is hidden, its associated Sub-Display screen will continue to display.

When alarm is hidden while the alarm is in the freeze mode, the freeze mode cannot be removed.

When a historical trend graph is hidden while displaying historical data, you cannot exit the historical data display.

When you use a Data Display with a clear plate color on the base layer, upon updating it display data, the rectangular data area becomes filled by the background color.
Data updated

Animation cannot be added to an object when it uses a shwdow. As well, you cannot add a shadow to an animated object. However, you can add animation to a group that contains an object set up with a shadow, and the shadow also becomes animated.
1. Group objects and set animation on the group.


2. Select objects in the group and set shadows on them one by one.


3. Shadows are animated along with the objects.

When you add animation to a group that has shadow objects on the base layer, the rectangular drawing area of a part can erase the shadow. When using color animation and parts are set up without a frame, the shadow may appear in front of the part.
