The following document describes the usage of the Copy/Paste tool to easily insert Tags into a Page.

How To Use

The first step to use this feature is to create a Tag tag in your Projectproject. This tag can be a simple one , such as an array or Custom Typea custom type

To better understand the feature, all three examples are shown in this documentbelow. The tags created are as follows:

Code Block
1.	Tag.Integer1 -- Integer DataType -- Simple Tag.
2.	Tag.Digital1 -- Digital DataType -- Array of 10 elements.
3.	Tag.CustomType -- Custom DataType
-- Sub-Elements: Element1 (Integer), Element2 (Integer.)


Tag creation.

 

Now that our tags were are created, we can start adding them to the display. Right-click at on the Integer1 Tagtag, and select the Copy Selected Row option.


Copy selected tag.

 

Navigate to the Draw Environment, at the desired Pageenvironment in your desired page. Right-click at on the display and select Paste. You should see the Tag tag being inserted into the display, and it should be already formatted with a TextOutput , for as its label , and a TextBox for as its displaying value.


Copy/Paste Simple Tag.

 

The same logic can be applied for array Tagstags. Copy the Tag tag row related to Digital1 Array from Edit-Tags-Objectsrelated to Digital1 Array. All elements should appear formatted when Pasted pasted into a page.


Copy/Paste Array Tag.

  


Lastly, for a Custom Type Tag, Copy the Parent custom type tag, copy the parent element from Edit-Tags-Objects and Paste paste it into your page. The child elements will be automatically formatted at in the Displaydisplay.
