New HMI release...

Today we had a new release for the HMI. We corrected a couple of issues with the graphic editor. One was when a group element contained other grouped elements and the top layer group was copied/pasted, the layering order of the elements would sometimes get reordered. The second issue was when selecting a group element and then selecting to change the tagnames of the element animations, only the top level group tagnames would be displayed.

A new feature we added was an easier to configure and use report generator. Here is a picture of the report editor.


It is like a spreadsheet. You enter static data or using one of the commands collect the value of a tagname, global string or the data/time.

Here are the supported formats.


The report filename is the report name and the current date/time if an optional file name is not specified. The report can be generated at runtime via a user button/command, a script command or via the task scheduler.
