Title: iniFileName for MessageListByValue
Post by: Morgan on May 02, 2016, 02:23:15 PM
I cannot seem to find the iniFileName property for the MessageListByValue.  I have a list of over 150 alarms that are assigned an alarm number.  I was hoping to use the MessageListByValue to display a list of active alarms.  I don't want to add each message one at a time.

I could use the MessageDisplayByValue control but I wanted to see more then 1 alarm at a time.  Currently I am updating the PLC message address with the next active alarm message number every 3 seconds.

I hate to ask but is this something that could be added quickly?  I am kind of under a time crunch.

I never noticed that missing. I'll see if I can come up with a patch today.

Download and extract the MfgControl.AdvancedHMI.ControlsPatch399e.zip file from here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/advancedhmi/files/advancedhmi/3.5/Patches/

- Open your project in Visual Studio
- In Solution Explorer, expand down the AdvancedHMIControls project
- Right click on the \support folder and select Add->Existing Item
- Browse to the file you downloaded, replace the existing file
- Rebuild your solution

 You should now have an IniFileName property in the MessageListByValue
