Compatibility of Fill

GP-PRO/PB3's [Fill] setting is not supported by GP-Pro EX.

If you have set [Fill] in GP-PRO/PB3, [Square/Rectangle], [Polygon], etc. will be converted to a different Draw feature or a "Filled" object after converted to GP-Pro EX.

However, in the following cases, there are differences of how to display between the GP2000/77R/70 series and the GP3000 series.

When the Fill display differs

1.	When [Fill] is used with [Arc/Pie]	→ Pattern 1
2.	When an object after conversion includes more than 100 vertices	→ Pattern 2
3.	When [Fill] and [Load Screen] are used	→ Pattern 3
4.	When [Fill] is used with [Text]	→ Pattern 4
5.	When an object is placed under a SW_NO_BORDER switch.	→ Pattern 5
6.	When [Fill] registered in the library is used	→ Pattern 6

IMPORTANT

-	Filled objects registered as a Package after converted to GP-Pro EX will not show up in a Picture Display. To display a filled object in a Picture Display, cancel the Fill feature or replace it with a new object.

Pattern 1: When [Fill] is used with [Arc/Pie]

Before conversion (GP-PRO/PB3)
[Fill] is set in the [Arc/Pie] placed on the base screen. GP-PRO/PB3 fills the color with no space.

After conversion (GP-Pro EX)
GP-Pro EX displays as the figure on the right. Some space may be seen around the border.

Pattern 2: When an object after conversion includes more than 100 vertices

Before conversion (GP-PRO/PB3)
[Fill] is used in a picture whose line’s angle is other than 45 degrees. (→ See the figure on the right.) The color of [Polyline] is set to white and [Fill] is to blue.

Zooming up the picture, you can see the lines other than 45 degrees are out of alignment dot by dot. The points circled in red are counted as vertices. If there are more than 100 vertices, you need to note the followings.

After conversion (GP-Pro EX)
It looks same as on GP-PRO/PB3.

If you move the converted picture, you will see it has been converted into two objects; [Fill] and [Line/Polyline].		[Fill]

		[Line/Polyline]

Please note that you cannot edit, or change size, on the [Fill] object.

Pattern 3: When [Fill] and [Load Screen] are used

Before conversion (GP-PRO/PB3)
The right figure B5 has only the [Fill] setting placed on it.

A [Square] is placed on the center of the base screen B4, which calls B5 by the [Load Screen] feature.

After conversion (GP-Pro EX)
The figure on the right is the base screen B4. You can see it is different from that of GP-PRO/PB3.

If you move the object a little, you will see the [Call Screen] and the [Rectangle] are separated. Screen display may differ.

Pattern 4: When [Fill] is used with [Text]

Before conversion (GP-PRO/PB3)

[Fill] is used in a [Text].

After conversion (GP-Pro EX)

It looks same as that on GP-PRO/PB3 apparently.

But the Fill has been converted to the Fill feature of [Polygon].

NOTE

・	Standard fonts used in GP-PRO/PB3 are different from ones in GP-Pro EX. Depending on the character, the Fill feature may be off from the text.

Pattern 5: When an object is placed under a SW_NO_BORDER switch.

Before conversion (GP-PRO/PB3)
A SW_NO_BORDER switch is placed on an object.

Fill the object over the switch.

After conversion (GP-Pro EX)
It looks same as that on GP-PRO/PB3 apparently.

If you move the filled object, you can see it has been converted to a Fill object with a dashed shape of the switch.
> Solution

Pattern 6: When [Fill] registered in the library is used.

Before conversion (GP-PRO/PB3)
In GP-PRO/PB3, when drawing function [Fill] registered in the library is called up through picture display and pasted on the screen,

Color runs out of picture display on the touch panel screen, and spreads to the surrounding area.

After conversion (GP-Pro EX)
Although there is no difference between GP-Pro EX and GP-PRO/PB3 except that [Fill] of picture display is a dot,

Color does not run out of picture display and spread to the surrounding area on the touch panel screen when animation function is used in the same screen.
