1.3.1.3.2.1. Resolve variables with graphics

With V12.9 it is now also possible to resolve value range variables with graphics without losing the graphics.

  1. Click in PARTdesigner > Extras menu on the command Resolve value ranges.... [Resolve value ranges...]

    -> The Resolve value range variables dialog box opens.

  2. Select the desired value range variable (which contains the graphics) and confirm with OK.

    -> The command is executed immediately.

    -> In order for the changes to be visible in PARTdesigner, it must be restarted.

  3. Result:

    • A variable with the name [VARNAME]+"VIS" was created, which contains the visible text from variable [VARNAME].

    • A variable [VARNAME]+"X" was created with a feature algorithm that controls the corresponding image assignment based on the visible text.

    • The resolved variable retains the status value range variable with graphics [Value range variable with graphics] to display the corresponding screens in the [VARNAME] column.

    • The variables [VARNAME] and [VARNAME] + VIS are also visible in PARTproject.
