Append an element to the cursor location
Important: Use caution when copying and pasting components between different versions of the Logix
Designer application. The application only supports pasting to the same version or newer version.
Pasting to a prior version of the application is not supported. When pasting to a prior version, the
paste action may succeed but the results may not be as intended.
1. Click to select the instruction, branch, or rung that is above or to the left of
where you want to add an element.
2. On the Language Element toolbar, click the button for the element that
you want to add.
Drag and drop an element
Drag the button for the element directly to the desired location. A green dot
shows a valid placement location (drop point).

operands. You can create a new tag, use an existing tag, or assign a constant value.

1. Click the operand area of the instruction.
