In the new 3.11 SP1 package for Windows 64bit I'm missing the GMS ACTIVEX objects, previously to be installed under Third Party Software. I need them for a migration of a 3.10 project.
Does anybody have an idea what happened to the GMS stuff?

The GMS ActiveX objects are only available on 32bit windows

Re: GMS ACTIVEX objects
Hello,
the GMS ActiveX package (3rd party software) is only available as 32bit-version. Therefore it cannot be selected for the installation on a 64bit-system.
The WinCC OA standard objects which are using GMS-objects have been modified to work without these ActiveX elements.

Hi Mr. Knipp,
thanks for the clarification. Is this a loss of features without any notice in the release notes of V3.11?
Attached is a screenshot of 2 specially taylored linear gauges. Do you have an idea how how I could replace them with your standard objects? The standard slider does not allow any scale values.
Kind Regards

Re: GMS ACTIVEX objects
Hello,
if you want to have a new customized slider you can create a panel-reference with the following objects:
-- slider object
-- text for the minimum and maximum value
-- text for the current value which is changed when the slider is moved (event Change/Slide for the slider object)
-- the minimum/maximum value and tick interval is set with $-parameters which are defined when adding the reference to a panel
Another possibility would be the installation of 64bit ActiveX-elements or the creation of own objects (EWO).
How to build a EWO is described in the online-help: Graphics editor (GEDI) --> Complex graphics objects --> EWO (External Widget Object).
