Image files

Directory containing image files that are available in the project. Multiple folders are separated with a semicolon. CODESYS uses the directory, for example, when exporting or importing image files.

3ec5a4b10864b2e0c0a8640e008c94e5_9a3f06830c0506c5c0a8640e012f0ace : You can configure a visualization element with a property 3ec5a4b10864b2e0c0a8640e008c94e5_e2aed98cc10d1d76c0a8640e004581f7 instead of with an IEC variable in those of its properties in which you select a variable. CODESYS then creates additional code for the property handling when compiling a visualization.

Requirement: Your IEC code contains at least one object of the type Interface property, i.e. a property 3ec5a4b10864b2e0c0a8640e008c94e5_e2aed98cc10d1d76c0a8640e004581f7 .
