My project runs on a SIMATIC Unified PC and the visualiztaion runs on a web browser. I have noticed that there is no ready to use Text editor object where for example the user could press a button and a text editor will pop-up while loading a text file on the computer. I also tried scripting with the command startprogram, funny thing is the Notepad program starts (Task manager) but it wont show (The Notepad editor does not pop in the windows enivroment). Do you have a tip for me?
