.jpg) March 11, 2010 - Software Toolbox announced Gadget Wizards 1.1 for Wonderware InTouch HMI software. The wizards provide innovative high-resolution graphics that maximize operator response and comprehension, while minimizing design and engineering efforts. Gadget Wizards is a collection of buttons, lights, switches, sliders, meters, fills and other graphic objects that plug into Wonderware InTouch HMI software. With the availability of a wide variety of settings that allow customization of each object, InTouch application developers are able to create thousands of unique graphics combinations quickly. In addition, Gadget Wizards can simply plug into the InTouch WindowMaker development environment and easily animate existing InTouch tags. The software saves significant engineering time by creating animations that would normally have to be created manually within the HMI development package. Also, licenses are only required for WindowMaker stations. Gadget Wizards licenses are not required for WindowViewer runtime nodes. The graphics software application works with panels made by Wonderware hardware partners that support InTouch Compact Edition 10.1 or higher. Gadget Wizards also is compatible with InTouch 8.0 or higher and is offered as a free upgrade for existing owners of Gadget Wizard licenses. Gadget Wizards is a cost-effective solution for application developers in both time and licensing, according to John Weber, president of Software Toolbox. "This new release of Gadget Wizards reduces engineering time and improves operator effectiveness by delivering realistic plant floor control graphics to panels running InTouch Compact Edition," Weber said. "With the thousands of possible combinations of Gadget Wizards, InTouch Compact Edition developers can achieve new levels of engaging screen displays. Gadget Wizards also can be used with InTouch on PCs and non-Wonderware panels, enabling consistency of appearance between different InTouch implementations." ABOUT SOFTWARE TOOLBOX Since 1996, Software Toolbox has been an industry source for industrial automation software, from project conception to completion.
