RE: FTOptix - Capturing keyboard input

Hi. It's not going to be that simple. You may try installing a keystroke NuGet package if you want to do this entirely in NetLogic. This question has been brought before. In reply #4 here our resident expert shared a Python script he wrote for roughly the same purpose. It runs parallel to the Optix runtime ...

Data Link Layer. It's the second layer from the bottom in the OSI model and the one where node-to-node or point-to-point communication is carried out on a LAN. If I understand the notes and the setup correctly, there should be other switches downstream of this one where all the other devices on each ...

There are certain features like this which don't render properly in the Optix Advanced SVG container.

If you attach a NetLogic object to the SVG image container, you can dynamically modify the SVG file content with a script. You can put placeholders in the base file and then replace them in bulk via the script at runtime. Advanced SVG Just something else to keep in mind. ------------------------------ ...

RE: FT Optix Studio disconnecting from a running OptixPanel

Yes, there's a way to disconnect from the runtime. It just isn't at all intuitive. At the bottom of Optix Studio you will see a tab for the log output of the connected OptixPanel. If you click the X on the tab it will not only close the log view, but will gracefully disconnect, leaving the application ...

RE: FT Optix Trend Pen with a Formatted Dynamic Link

Thanks for the screenshots. It makes it more clear. I tried to replicate your issue and I cannot. It worked well with both a local alias on a trend screen and a alias passed into a dialog box. The string formatter isn't necessary, but it also shouldn't be causing any problems. Perhaps there is a problem ...

RE: FT Optix Panel remote InfluxDB limitations

Posted By CodeAssist Apr 03, 2026 08:09:03 AM
Found In Egroup: Advanced Software \ view thread
Have you completely ruled out that the problem is the system running Influx before determining that Optix is the problem? Normally, when performance comes into question you can notice a stark difference between an Optix application running in the emulator on a powerful PC versus an OptixPanel. I don't ...

It's not so much a question of Linx vs Optix, as the performance of either is still going to be limited to the hardware they are running on. In the case of the OptixPanel, it is a system with an ARM process and modest specs. For some applications, it reaches limitations quickly. Upcoming variants will ...

If you open the link and go to the Advanced tab where you can edit the string formatter, you will see that the linked tags/variables have arrow on their pathway to indicate which direction the data flows.

Hi. Since you only have 20 recipes, you can build this rather easily. First, in the Model folder, add either a folder or an object. To that folder or object, add 20 variables of type String. Name each variable as the desired index (1, 2, 3, 4...etc). For the text of each string, add a String formatter. ...

RE: FTOptix: Syntax Error with SQL Query in Datagrid

Syntax error at 39 This tells you that the problem with the syntax starts with [1] in the query. Can you use something else as the aliases, rather than bracketed numerals? Maybe like A thru J instead? Just because the syntax is valid for the given db type does not guarantee that it will work in Optix. ...

I don't see a problem either way. Both are variables, not exclusive resources, so they should be able to be written to by NetLogic and/or the Optix core.

Yeah, that PDF isn't searchable for some reason. Start on page 149. The search feature here on Engage is powered by outdated technology. Certainly it is hard to find things. Rest assured, a new search feature is in the works. As for the Optix Help search, it is also poor. Sadly, I don't have good ...

FYI, the FT Optix Resources Thread is pinned to the top of this community. The last resource listed is some technical training, which includes refactoring. When you have a link in a base type, that link is carried through to the inheritance chain and cannot be modify. At best, I think it can be replaced, ...

If you create a NetLogic in Optix Studio and then add some variables to it, those are logic object variables. Should be no problems to write to those. If you instead want to write to variables in the project's Model folder, you can do that too. Just create your own long-running task in the NetLogic script. ...
