Skoglund, Sorry for my delayed response, I'm still waiting for some additional information. The copy/paste problem you are experiencing with screens is caused by conflicts with the variable types configured on the screens for things like node pointers and alias's (you already know this). We have ...

I am having trouble duplicating this issue, you may have discovered an anomaly. Can you provide more specific steps or attach a simple project with the problem.

I think this is likely the issue because Logix must be installed to do an offline import with the current v1.4 betas. Can you stick with online import for now until we remove this dependency? I will let you know when v1.4 can support offline import without the need to have Logix installed. ------- ...

Thank you for the feedback. I will look into it and add a backlog entry if we don't already have one. We have not been able to prioritize continued development on the "Connect online to applications" feature over the last few releases. It is a nice feature so I will try and get it some focus for a future ...

FYI. In addition to this, each alarm has an associated active variable in case you ever need to indicate when a particular alarm is active.

The steps you are taking to create a new library seem correct to me, I don't think you should have to do a commit to use a local library. You can do a commit or commit and push if you decide to save a local version or convert the local library to a remote library in the future. I tried this using the ...
