User-defined property

Create a user-defined property to act as a placeholder for a value or data on a screen, popup, or Add-On Graphic definition. This enables using a screen multiple times by passing different values to the user-defined properties using a shortcut or navigation command.
There are two types of user-defined properties:
  • Alias
    . Create an alias property to reference the property of a screen or definition of an Add-On Graphic, or the property of a graphic element. The alias name is comprised of the element name and the specific property to expose separated by a period:
    ElementName.PropertyName
  • Using an alias property in an expression is not supported.
    • Data type
      . Create a user-defined property with a data type to associate it with a data type contained in a Logix Designer project (.acd) file. Data type properties replace a specific
      Logix Designer
       tag instance when configuring bindings and expressions on the screen. The data type is Predefined, Module-defined, or User-defined (UDT).
