Input Assistant
The input assistant for images from image pools opens automatically when a visualization element of type image is added to a visualization page for the first time. This dialog can also be reached by selecting the value field "Static ID" in the properties of an image element and then clicking the button.
This dialog offers two options for selecting an image from the image pools that are present in the PLC project:
- Text search
Enter the name or part of the name of the required image file in the line editor at the top. All image file names that match the text are displayed. In addition, you can set a filter to narrow the search to a particular image pool. - Categories
All image pools available in the project are listed in the column on the left. When an image pool is selected, a preview of the images is displayed on the right.
Use one of the two option to select an image, then close the dialog with OK. Alternatively, you can double-click on the required image. Once the dialog has been closed, the image is fully referenced in the property "Static ID" with <name of image pool>.<name of image>.
