SCADA Training #19 | Screen Design (Part 2) | Form Properties, Themes & Layout Control

📌 In this lesson of the Wise SCADA Screen Design training series, we focus on Form Properties and how they affect all objects within a SCADA screen.

You will learn how form-level settings automatically propagate to child objects, how to group components using Panel objects, and how to design operator-friendly screens with dynamic color themes such as Default, Dark, and Custom modes.

This lesson also demonstrates how operators can switch screen themes at runtime using Radio Buttons and Tags, making SCADA interfaces more flexible for day/night operation and personal preferences.

Additionally, we cover advanced form settings such as opacity, layout behavior, window controls, and dynamic positioning.
