Hello. Has it happened to you that your Customized Object one day became Unknown? (see attachment) It happened to me several months ago but I did nothing to resolve this. Now just for the hell of it I'm interested whether someone else had the same issue before. I wanted to create a popup windows such as @PG_APL_OA_Binary103.pdl but with command buttons that would operate the bits in the Control Words. It's for self-made FBs cause I don't want and don't like to make separate BOOL Inputs for the operator commands. I prefer SCL + Control Words + AT on ControlWord with struct of a bunch of BOOLs. So I took @PG_APL_OA_Binary103.pdl and changed one button according to my needs. It was made in a test project. Everything worked fine. Later I added this pdl to my working project (PCS7 of the same version 7.1 SP3) and didn't pay attention to that button anymore for the next several months. After that I tried to use it in Runtime and saw that the button is broken in some way (don't remember how it looked like). Then I opened pdl in Graphics Designer and that button was shown as white rectangle with the text "Unknown Object" (see attachment). I restored several previous versions of my working and test projects, and tried it on different PCs, too — it's all the same unknown. It was hard to modify the original @PG_APL_OA_Binary103.pdl for the first time so I haven't tried to recreate my button. Left it at that.. Attachment@PG_ANK_OA_Binary103.zip (44 Downloads) |
