Hi everyone...I'm also interested in using various pneumatic and hydraulic controls. Basically, they don't need to be more complicated than simple boolean or numeric controls, only that they have to look like pneumatic or hydraulic items...How exactly is it that we can use the DSC's Image Navigator to turn them into controls? I've tried the links suggested by Khalid, but didn't get lucky....any other suggestions?
Thanks for the help!

I use DSC for this alot. Find the pic you want to use in the Image Navigator. Customize the item however you want (color, orientation, etc.) GoTo Edit and select copy as picture (wmf) only.
Get your control or indicator and make it a custom control. From the custom control window right click the control/indicator and select import picture from clipboard. The rest should be self explanitory.

Thanks a lot Rob F, it was quite helpful...I've already started creating my custom-made controls....Another question...It's easy to make boolean controls, but what about analogic ones? More specifically, analogic indicators....For example, I want to change a tank meter, how do I do that? The way the tank is "filled" doesn't seem to be editable, is that possible?
Again, thanks a lot for the help everyone!
