Solved! I remembered that theres a thing if you copy a dynamic link from an instance of a panel or field, it doesn't produce the actual/complete dynamic link so I had to copy the dynamically formatted string from the original generic panel rather than the first instance I found/chose. Thank you for your ...

Lastly, I have a UDT/struct within the initial UDT that represents a datetime. Any idea on how i can display that in a column of the data grid? Previously I had it mapped to an aliased text box that would string format it into a readable date and time. the desired format where I've gotten ...

Thank you! Where do you end up using subTags and/or rather what is subTags meant for? Or is it just meant to be a debug visualizer for what the values are within an element?

Right I am doing that in Visual Studio Code which is where I can see that the value I am trying to reach exists in variable 'Value' (see attached screenshots). I am using the lines of code from the example that was attached to get the the array and owned nodes. I set up a separate method attached to ...

Thank you that's exactly what I've been trying to figure out! How can I drill down into the children of the array to use a specific child's value as the comparator for what's ignored? I've been able to get to get to the proper field by name using element.Children.Get("TestSTRING") but I have not been ...

Hello, I have a tag in the PLC that is an array of an AOI type for alarm events (ex. a_AlarmEvent[140]). The array is populated with the alarms that are currently active in the system. I am trying to populate a data grid with the tags (ex. Name, Alarm Number, Message, etc.) of each element in the ...

Ohhhh right! I forgot that to add the event to a tag I added the event from the top right + rather than the bottom right +. Thank you for the clarification and additional information!

Sorry, if you look at the first and last screenshots 'Variable1' and 'hmialarmnumber', notice how the + next to 'Events' is lightly grayed out and I'm unable to select/add an event. In the middle two when the 'Model' folder and 'Panel1' are selected, the + next to 'Events' is a darker gray and I am able ...

I am on version 1.4.2.3 I restarted my VM and computer, made a new test project and received the same result (see differences below [model variable, folder, and panel): It's strange though because it seems that if there was already an external event that was added prior to the issue ...

Was working on an Optix project and realized that I was no longer able to add external events to controller tags or model variables (even though I was able to in the same projects previously). I can add external events to objects like panels, buttons, etc. but the option is grayed out for variables and ...

SOLVED: When a new project is created the NetSolution folder is empty and the files/folders inside are generated once a NetLogic object is created in the project. To regenerate the .dll file and bin folder, I made sure that there weren't any NetLogic objects in the project (I'm unsure of if it will regenerate ...

Realized that this wasn't in the original log photo but upon opening the project with no netlogics in it there is this error: the bin folder (and .dll file) does not exist at the location listed in the error.

I have the C# toolkit installed and see no errors being flagged in the code I wrote. Even when there are no NetLogics in the Optix project there is an unable to update error because the bin file no longer exists in the "C:\Users\image\Documents\Rockwell Automation\FactoryTalk Optix\Projects\_8904_Tr ...

I'm not familiar with NuGet packages but I don't believe I installed any. Yes, I moved the NetLogic by placing it into a local library and I also tried the copy and paste method (definitely a more annoying workflow haha). Even when I deleted the NetLogics from the project and it gave the "Building .NET ...
