CFC Editor, Page-Oriented

Edit

You can drag an element page from the toolbox to the page navigation, then another page will be inserted.

You can select existing pages in the page navigation and multiply them with the commands Copy and Paste.

You can change the size of the page using the Edit page size command.

You create connections across pages using the elements source connection mark and sink connection mark. When you drag a connecting line from an input pin or an output pin to the margin, a new connection mark is automatically created. The List components feature provides an overview of all defined source connection marks.

Once you have selected an element in the editor, you can use the arrow keys to move the selection from one element to the next and thus navigate through the circuit. If you have selected a connection mark and still press an arrow key, the corresponding connection mark of the next/previous page will be selected.

You can transfer networks or elements from a CFC programming block to the program area of a page-oriented CFC using the commands Copy and Paste. Alternatively, you can use drag-and-drop.

Execution order

The execution order is automatically set according to the order of the pages as they are sorted in the page navigator of the editor. Within a page, a page-oriented CFC object behaves like a CFC object. You can thus switch between Automatic data flow mode and Explicit execution order mode.
