'Project' 'Object Copy'

With this command a selected object is copied and saved under a new name. Enter the
name of the new object in the resulting dialog box. Remember that the name of the
object may not have already been used.

If, on the other hand, you used the command 'Edit' 'Copy', then the object is parked on
the clipboard, and no dialog box appears.

'Project' 'Object Open'

Shortcut: <Enter>

With the command you load a selected object within the Object Organizer into the
respective editor. If a window with this object is already open, then it gets a focus, is
moved into the foreground and can now be edited.

There are two other ways of opening an object:

• Doubleclick with the mouse on the desired object
• in the Object Organizer type the first letter of the object name. This will open a

dialog box in which all objects of the available object types which have this initial
letter are shown. Actions are listed with the notation <POU name>.<action name>.
Due to the fact that the objects in the object selection dialog are listed

alphabetically, the actions of a POU always get positioned below this POU. Select
the desired object and click on the button Open in order to load the object in its
edit window. Hereupon the object gets also marked in the object organizer and all
folders which are hierarchically placed above the object will get expanded. This
option is supported with the object type Resources only for global variables.
