Lucas got before me (I found a colleague with some insights to the matter during my lunch...)
Apart from external triggering (to some property of an Calc or controller signal) you can also use internal triggering with the help of e.g. the _NOW variable and some simple math, e.g. modulo (%).

Afaik, there is no outspoken support for programming a sequence of graphics to be iterated on timer, event, etc.
I find your request very valid - don't hesitate to communicate it to your regional ABB sales representative as a request for future enhancements.

Hello,
first of all, are you using VB och PG2 graphic displays ?
Do you want the displays to cyclicly switch or on an event ?
Tell me if I missunderstood that you want a "slide show".

Its not a common solution but is should work...
You can use the Aspect View Invoker in PG2 to create a sequence of screens.
You need to prepare a variable on the controller (toggle the variable) an connect the variable to the Trigger of the Aspect view invoker. On each screen you need this Aspect View Invoker to set a trigger to jump to the next screen (ViewReference).

The Script Manager is part of Engineering Studio. You can find instructions for using it in The relevant Manual - System 800xA Engineering Studio (3BDS011223).
Script manager is for automating engineering functions. It is not capable of creating a "sequence of screen". What exactly are you trying to do ?
