Adding Processes to a Routine, "Routine In", "Routine Out", Local or Global Procedure or Global Event |
|
Overview
In the case of the Routines, Routine Ins, Routine Outs, Local Procedures and Global Events, the processes are added to a specific tab:
•For Routines, the Routine In and the Routine Out, it is the "Routine" tab.
•In the case of Local Procedures and/or Global Procedures, it is the "Procedure" tab.
For global events, it is the "Event" tab.
These tabs are basically the same in terms of display and available options, only the name is different.
To Add Processes
Use one of the following methods to add a process:
•Click 
, in the editing bar, to open a Process List (see Detail of a Process List below) and select the desired process.
•Click 
to expand a list with the processes from the Favorites group and select one.
•Double-click the row that will receive the desired process. This opens a Process List where you can select the desired process (see Detail of a Process List below).
•Use the menu that appears after right-clicking the selected row and select the 
option. This opens a Process List (see Detail of a Process List below) where you can select the desired process.
•Use the drag-and-drop mechanism to add a process from the "Process Display Section" (located to the right of the "Work Area").
In the case of a routine, a local procedure and/or a global event, this mechanism is only available for the editing (meaning, NOT during the element's addition).
•if you intend to use the "Set Label" process or the "Go To" process, use the available Editing Bar shortcuts (
and 
respectively). See Detail of the Editing Bar.
