Viewing an Online Program as It Looked

Before It Was Edited

While you are editing an online program and before you commit any

online changes, you can view the same program as it appeared

before you began making modifications. The Editor displays the

original program in a separate window. The text (Original Program)"

printed before the file name in the window's title bar helps you

identify the original program from the edited version. Use the Show

Original Program command to display an original version of the

program you are currently editing online.

To view an online program as it looked before it was edited

online
Step 1.

Make sure the onlineĆedited program for which you want

to view the original version is in the active online program

window.

Step 2.

Do one of the following:
D From the Online menu, choose Show Original

program.
or

D Click on

In the Original Program window, power flow and rung numbers are

displayed as they appear in the online edited version. If a rung was

deleted, the corresponding rung in the Original Program window is

marked with a D" revision mark and displayed using the color

defined for modified rungs.
The Editor updates the original program window with any changes

you make to the online program. For example, if you insert a rung in

the online program, the rung numbers in the original program are

updated. However, you cannot make any changes to the original

program; it is a readĆonly file.
When you cancel all changes made to an online program, this

program then matches the original version. When you commit

changes made to an online program, the Editor updates the version

displayed in the original program window to match the one in the

online program window.
