New Settings for Usage in EPLAN Cogineer

In EPLAN Cogineer placeholder objects in the macros are used to vary the data during the generation of schematics or on the generated schematic pages. To control the behavior of placeholder objects in EPLAN Cogineer, the new Settings tab is now available in the property dialog of the placeholder objects.

Benefit:

By means of the new Settings tab you can control the usage of placeholder objects in EPLAN Cogineer in accordance with your requirements.

If the Use placeholder object in EPLAN Cogineer check box is activated, the placeholder object is available after adding the macro in EPLAN Cogineer and is taken into consideration during the schematic generation in EPLAN Cogineer. In this case values assigned in EPLAN Cogineer are displayed at the placeholder object on the generated schematic page.

If this setting is activated, you can specify by means of the second setting Remove placeholder object after generation that the respective placeholder object is removed in EPLAN Cogineer after the generation of the schematic pages.
