To change all attributes at once, you can export the list of
attributes of parts in the CSV or text format, edit the settings
and import it back to the original project file.
When you import, you can only update the
attributes for the [Switch/Lamp] and the addresses/labels of the
[Data Display].
If text registered in the Text Table is used as
a label, that text will be skipped and cannot be imported.
Export
From the [Screen (S)] menu, click [Change View (V)]
- [Parts List (P)].
The screen editor changes to the screen list.
Parts attributes for selected [Parts] are
displayed.
[Draw], [Trigger Action], and [D-Script] are
not listed.
Click [Export] and the following dialog box
appears. Select the [Save in] location, [File name], [Save as
type], and [Target Parts], then click [Save].
The file with the list of attributes is output in the specified
format when the export is complete.
Edit
Edit addresses and labels in the exported file with
an application such as Microsoft Excel or Notepad.
The edited file is saved in the same format that it was exported
from (for example, CSV or text format).
You can edit only the addresses and labels of
the [Switch/Lamp] and [Data Display] parts. Editing attributes of
other items will not update them.
Import
Click [Import] on the Parts List screen.
When importing, the features of the parts in
the project file must all correspond with the features described in
the file to successfully update the attributes. If a feature does
not match with anything in the file, the part cannot be
updated.
In the dialog box that follows, specify the file
you want to import and click [Open].
The following message appears after import is
complete.
To check the results of the import, click [Yes] to display a log
file.
The import log file displays only updated
parts, separated by type and in the order shown on the screen
editor.
