Description
The StringPointSelector component is used to automatically create links from or to the StringPoints of the station.
Implementation
When you are in a WireSheet and you double-click on the object, a window appears allowing you to select the point to link via a drop-down list.
If a PointSelector object is duplicated, it reverts to its default state (no selection)
Properties
- Facets: Takes the facets of the StringPoint to which it is linked
- Status: The status of the StringPoint. It can change to {overridden} if the override action is triggered
- SelectedPoint: The point selected
- Container: The ord from which the object looks for points
- ListFormat: The format for displaying points in the drop-down list.
Example: parent.displayName + '-' + displayName
- Condition: Allows you to add a condition to the query that searches for the points in the container, for example on the display name of the point or its parent, (optional)
- Selection: The drop-down list of StringPoints in the container that satify the condition (if a condition has been entered). When a point is selected, the link is created or updated.
- LinkDirection: Indicates the direction of the link (to the in slot or from the out slot of the PointSelector)
- inSlot: In the case of an outbound link from the PointSelector, this property indicates to which slot the target object is linked.
- In: BStatusString input slot
- Out: BStatusString output slot. Can be overridden by the Override action or restored by the Auto action.
Actions
- UpdateList: Updates the drop-down list of available StringPoints
- Override: Allows you to override the Out slot of the PointSelector to true or false (the output out then takes the {overridden} status)
- Auto: Disables any override (the value and status of the out slot are identical to the in slot).
