Hello, I have a 48" touchscreen monitor that I am using to relay information to the factory. The Worksheets that are displayed have a variety of graphs, data values commandbuttons and such to relay this information. I had previously been using cells to relay a lot of the data, but I have since revamped the worksheets to use objects such as blocks and such to show this data instead. By assigning links to some of the objects I am able to give the users the ability to "drill down" to other worksheets and related documents such as pdf's and jpegs. There are a pretty good quantity of objects, grouped into subject matters - some of these groups may have 50 or more objects in them.
However the one negative to this touchscreen monitor is that I am having to deal with the users accidentally moving the objects around the screen. Instead of just touching the buttons they keep sliding their fingers on the screen. I have asked them to "Control Z" it if they do this but it seems like they will do a save or something first which negates that function. I have been really working hard at protecting the worksheets and configuring the objects to prevent this. But with all of the shapes and commandbuttons that I am using this is not working well enough to solve the problem.
In the past I have set up my userforms to display at a specific location on the screen when I launch them. I am wondering if there is a way to code the location of groups and objects on the screen into a macro so that if they get moved I (or the user themselves) can just hit a "reset" button to put them all back to the correct location on the worksheet? Has anyone ever done something like this? I would appreciate your insight on the practicality of doing this? Thanks for your thoughts.
