1.2 Notes on using JP1/AJS3 - View
This section describes notes on using JP1/AJS3 - View.
-
Set the display resolution to 1,024 x 768 pixels or higher. If the display resolution is lower than 1,024 x 768 pixels, a window or dialog box might not be displayed within the display screen.
Specify the number of display colors to a value greater than 256. With 256 or fewer display colors, the windows or dialog boxes may not be correctly displayed.
-
System resources (memory) in the startup sequence
If a system resource (memory) becomes insufficient in the startup sequence, an application error may occur or operations in windows may be disabled. Set sufficient margin for the upper limits to the system resources (memory) on JP1/AJS3 - View. For details about how to set the upper limit, see 11.2.5 Setting the amount of memory used.
-
When starting multiple instances of JP1/AJS3 - View
When starting multiple instances of JP1/AJS3 - View, start an instance of JP1/AJS3 - View after the JP1/AJS3 - View window of the previous instance of JP1/AJS3 - View is displayed. If an attempt is made to start JP1/AJS3 - View before the JP1/AJS3 - View window of the previous instance is completely displayed, the environment settings may become invalid.
-
When running multiple instances of JP1/AJS3 - View concurrently
When you run multiple instances of JP1/AJS3 - View concurrently on a single host, changing the environment settings of one instance might overwrite the environment settings of the others. Make sure that only one instance of JP1/AJS3 - View is running when you change its environment settings.
-
Using JP1/AJS3 - View for a long time
When you use JP1/AJS3 - View over a long period of time, restart JP1/AJS3 - View periodically. This prevents a memory leak that causes JP1/AJS3 - View to be inoperable. We recommend that you restart JP1/AJS3 - View within the range of every two days to once a week, depending on the amount of work.
-
Notes on setting an item of a dialog box
When the OK button is clicked in a dialog box for defining details of a JP1/AJS3 - View unit or specifying a schedule, the communication with JP1/AJS3 - Manager starts to register the information specified in the dialog box.
If you only checked the information in a dialog box without changing it, we recommend that you click the Cancel button to close the dialog box to prevent unnecessary communication.
-
Copying or moving a unit between multiple instances of JP1/AJS3 - View
A unit cannot be copied among multiple instances of JP1/AJS3 - View. A unit cannot be cut and pasted into another instance of JP1/AJS3 - View.
-
Notes on incorrect window display
When pages are switched around in a dialog box or when the scroll bar is used to scroll through the window, the window display may be garbled. If this occurs, slowly repeat the same operation to recover the normal window display.
-
Window operation while a dialog box is displayed
While a dialog box of a certain type is displayed, other windows cannot be used.
-
The menu commands have no access key.
-
Scroll arrow button for drop-down lists
In the Login screen and some dialog boxes, a menu scroll button is sometimes displayed even if no item can be selected from the drop-down lists.
-
Some types of displays and display drives may be unable to represent proper colors. This problem does not affect the system operation.
-
A minimized window cannot be correctly displayed at its maximum. To maximize a minimized window, first restore the original window size, and then maximize it.
-
On some dialog box buttons and message box buttons, the dotted-line box, which represents your focus, may not be displayed. It does not affect the system operation.
-
Multiple dialog boxes or message boxes displayed at the same time
On a low-speed host, multiple dialog boxes or message boxes might appear if you successively click menu items or other items in a window while the host is busy or JP1/AJS3 - View is communicating with JP1/AJS3 - Manager. In such a case, click the Cancel button on each dialog box to close them all, then redo the same operations. When multiple message boxes appear at the same time, respond to the messages one by one.
-
Animation functionality enabled
If the animation functionality is enabled, scrolling through a list box might cause something to be incorrectly displayed. The procedure below describes how to disable the animation functionality.
-
Press the Windows key and the U key at the same time.
The Ease of Access Center window opens.
-
Click Make the computer easier to see.
-
Under Make things on the screen easier to see, clear the Turn off all unnecessary animations (when possible) check box.

-
Level 3 and level 4 kanji characters added to JIS 2004
JP1/AJS3 does not support JIS 3rd level and 4th level Kanji characters. Do not use such characters if you are using JP1/AJS3 - View. If you do use such characters, they might be garbled.
-
Do not enter control characters such as tab characters and newline characters in text fields.
If a control character such as a newline character is included in the unit definition parameter, the character string might be deleted when the text fields are displayed. If a control character is entered, the background of the text field is changed to yellow.
