DI001569 Dialog message

The text to be output can be entered here.

Information

• Variables can also be included in dialog message texts. When the text is output, the current content of the variable (and not the variable itself) is displayed.
• The following variable types are possible:
  • System variables: @xx
  • Global variables @Gxxxx
  • Dynamic variables: @Dxxxx
  • User variables: @Uxxxx

Notes

• In standard dialog messages that are used in the source, there are additional placeholders like %s. Upon output of the dialog message, they are filled with the respective data by the program.
• If there are several placeholders in one dialog message, the sequence in which they are replaced is stored in the program. If the text of such a dialog message is changed, this must be considered in order to prevent errors in the output.
  • Dialog message 0339 reads Capacity scheduling canceled (Reason: resource periods incomplete: Resource: %s, Date: %s). In this message, the first occurrence of the %s placeholder is always filled with the resource ID, the second one with the respective date. If the sequence in the chamber is changed to ... Date: %s, Resource: %s... the output will hence be incorrect.

Information
