Setting the name of the Control Tag folder

You can use the Control Tag folder name (“trend”) that has already
been configured for the trend objects in the Trends graphic library, or
you can change the name of the folder and then apply the new name
to all objects associated with this trend.

To change the trend’s Control Tag folder name and replace

the old folder name:

1.

Open the Trend dialog box by doing one of the following:

double–click the trend

select the trend, place the cursor over it, right–click to display

the context menu, and then click Edit Trend

select the trend, open the Edit menu on the menu bar, and then

click Edit Trend

2.

In the Control Tag field, type a new name.

3.

Click OK.

The Control Tag folder is created in the tag database. It contains
the control tags for the trend. You now have to replace the old
folder name with the new name for the buttons and touch control
objects that the operator uses to control the trend at runtime.

4.

Select all the remaining objects.

5.

On the Edit menu, click Tag Substitution.

6.

In the Search for field, specify the old Control Tag folder name. In
the Replace with field, specify the new folder name.
