‘Project’ ‘Object properties’

This command will open the dialog ‘Properties’ for that object which is currently marked in the Object organizer.

On the tab ‘Access rights’ you find the same dialog as you get when executing the command ‘Project’ ‘Object Access rights’

It depends on the object and the project settings, whether there are additional tabs available where you can define object properties:

Global variable list:

In the tab ‘Global variable list’ the parameters concerning the actualization of the list and concerning the data exchange of network variables are displayed and can be modified here. This dialog also will be opened if you Create a Global Variable List by selecting one of the entries in section ‘Global Variables’ in the Object Organizer and executing the command ‘Add Object’.

Visualization:

In the tab ‘Visualization’ you can define for the visualization object, how it should be used (see also: CoDeSys Visualization User Manual):

Use as:

If in the Target Settings in Category Visualization the option ‘Web-Visualization’ or ‘Target-Visualization’ is activated, then you can choose here whether the object should be part of the Web-Visualization or Target–Visualization.

Used as:

Activate one of these settings referring to the possibility of using “Master layouts”:

  • Visualization: The object is used as a normal visualization.
  • Visualization without master layout: If a Master Layout is defined in the project, it will not be applied to this visualization object.
  • Master layout: The object will be used as Master Layout. Per default the master layout always will be in the foreground of a visualization, except the option as background is activated.

If the project is connected to an ENI data base (‘Project’ ‘Options’ ‘Project source control’ Options for ‘Project source control’), then a tab ‘Database-connection’ will be available. Here you can display and modify the current assignment of the object to one of the data base categories resp. to the category ‘Local’.
