Actually, i´d like to delete the sub-window with the Batch parameters. Is it as simple as deleting the screen "@PCS7_batch.pdl" directly from the "@PL_type.pdl" or should we follow a different procedure ? 2) And here is a different question related with Faceplates. What should i do in order to place a comment in an I/O field inside a customized faceplate ? This comment shoudn´t disappear when i leave the window and then go back to it. And besides, the most useful thing would be the creation of the comment in the CFC. But then i don´t know exactly which attribute should be used as tag in the OS... Is it the .#comment or the .#string_0 or the .#string_1 ? Could you please provide me with some tips for both topics ? Thank you very much in advance for your support. Regards,

In addition to deleting batch window (view3), you should change the view counter to 3 and rename view4 to view3 and re-attach TagPrefix direct connection. See attachment. bocatadeatun ...to place a comment in an I/O field ... Can you explain what you mean by this?. bocatadeatun ...#string_0 or the .#string_1 ... I agree it is best to place the comments in CFC. You can use string_0 or string_1 if BOOL and comment for others. Regards Attachment BatchViewDelete.pdf (212 Downloads)
