You have opened a project.
- You have inserted a symbol in the graphical editor or generated a new function in a navigator.
- You have selected a function in the graphical editor or in a navigator. Edit > Properties.
In the Properties <...> dialog, select the Display tab. You have created at least one user-defined property arrangement and saved it under a specific name. Click (Export) in the toolbar above the drop-down list.
In this dialog, you export the saved, user-defined property arrangements for a specific symbol variant.
Overview of the main dialog elements:
Available property arrangements:
In this field, you will see the saved, user-defined property arrangements of the symbol variants selected in the Properties <...> dialog. Select the check boxes for the property arrangements you would like to export.
In this field, enter the file path and the file name of the export file. The export file has the file extension *.emc.
You can use the Insert path variable popup menu item to branch to the dialog Select path variable where you can select one of the available path variables.
Note:
When exporting user-defined property arrangements for a certain symbol variant, and when executing a project-wide export of user-defined property arrangements via Project > Organize Export property arrangements, the export files are by default saved in the same directory ($(EPLAN_DATA)\Xml\<Company code>) with the file name extension *.emc. Use different file names in order to differentiate between the generated files.
