Dialog options - FBD, LD and IL

Show network title

The network title is displayed in the upper left corner of the network.

Show network comment

The network comment is displayed in the upper left corner of the network. If TwinCAT also displays the network title, the comment appears in the line below.

Show box icon

The function block symbol is displayed in the block element in the FBD and LD editor. The standard operators also have symbols.

Show operand comment

TwinCAT displays the comment that you have assigned to a variable in the implementation part. The operand comment only refers to the local usage point of the variable, in contrast to the "symbol comment".

Show symbol comment

TwinCAT displays the comment that you have assigned to a variable or symbol in the declaration above the variable name. In addition to or instead of the symbol comment, you can also assign a local "operand comment".

Show symbol address

If an address is assigned to a symbol (variable), this address is displayed above the variable name.

Show network separators

A dividing line is displayed between the individual networks.
