Event Handlers
Event handlers provide the ability to add custom script when a user interacts with a component such as by clicking a mouse, selecting a menu item or when a component property changes.
mouse
mouseClicked
This event signifies a mouse click on the source component. A mouse click the combination of a mouse press and a mouse release, both of which must have occurred over the source component. Note that this event fires after the pressed and released events have fired.

Extension Functions
This component does not have extension functions associated with it.
Custom Methods
Custom methods allow you to add your own component functions to a component that can be called through scripting. This is a useful and clean method of re-using script that is specific to the component (say you want to update a visual aspect of the component in the same way whether a user clicks on the component or a window property value changes). See Component Custom Methods in the Ignition Help Manual for more information.
Customizers
This component does not have any custom properties.
Component Functions
This component provides the following function that can be called on it. If this component has been dropped onto the windows root container, the path and an example call would be event.source.parent.getComponent('Process Capability Chart').showSetLimitPanel(chartName).
showSetLimitPanel(chartName)
- Description
Causes the calculate and set control limit dialog to be shown.
- Parameters
String chartName - Which chart to show the control limit dialog for. Available options are "Primary".
- Return
Nothing
- Scope
