The Show Internal Names check box toggles internal or display
names in the Name column. Typically, display names are used
instead of internal names.

The Name column shows resources in a hierarchical view
organization, allowing the expand-collapse of the individual
resource entries. A context right-click menu is also available
on the entries in the Name column that allows a variety of
operations (add, delete, and rename) that are specific to each
entry.

Internal names are not typically edited and cannot be edited if
the resource is in use somewhere in the test procedure. Display
names can be edited whenever the test definition is editable.
Test resources cannot be deleted if they are in use somewhere.
Test resources can be created whenever the test definition is
editable.

The dimension of a test resource is only editable if no other test
definition modules use the resource (such as activities and

Dimension

runtime components). If you are connected to a controller, do
not change the dimension because that may invalidate the
controller resource assignment and show an error symbol.

Use this setting to change the polarity of a float signal. Changing
the setting affects the “Effect of Increasing Extension” setting.
Available settings are:
