How To Use

In order to copy and paste tags in your project, you need to create a tag. This tag can be as simple as an array or a custom type. 

To better understand the feature, three examples are shown below. The tags created are as follows:

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.)

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

Navigate to the Draw environment on your desired page. Right-click on the display and select Paste. The tag should be inserted into the display, and it should already be formatted with a TextOutput as its label and a TextBox as its displaying value.

The same logic can be applied to the array tags. Copy the tag row that's related to the Digital1 Array from Edit-Tags-Objects. All of the elements should appear formatted when pasted into a page.

For a custom type tag, copy the parent element from Edit-Tags-Objects and paste it into your page. The child elements will be automatically formatted in the display.

Copy and Paste Tags to Symbols

You create a symbol and give it the same name as a default tag template. When you do this and you copy/paste a tag from that template into the draw area, the symbol and all of its tag template structure will be pasted into the draw screen, instead of the default text output that is normally pasted.

Below is the “Motor” symbol using the motor custom type:

When you copy/paste tags that use the Motors template onto a page, all motors symbols will be created and configured with the correct tag.

You can execute this operation with custom type inside of custom type with several different custom types at same time.
