Step 6 of 8: Add a Dynamic Property to the Tank

PL6.6: Add a dynamic Property to your Custom Tank

Written by Alexandra Göttert

Prerequisites

  • The tank's custom geometry is saved.

Steps

1.) Open the tank's profile group in the Datamanager. Use the tank's profile group to add the new dynamic property.

2.) Fill in the necessary data. Add a new record and fill in the required fields for the property.

Tip: The new content is stored in the database with a second click on the current tab.

3.) Copy a free user variable from the DigiPara Liftdesigner Data tree. In DigiPara Liftdesigner, right-click a free user variable in the Data tree to open the copy dialog box, and copy it. Paste it into the Datamanager with Ctrl+V — the variable always starts with L_.

4.) Define your ComboBox. In the Datamanager, configure the property's ComboBox so it offers a predefined choice of values.

Result

The tank has a new dynamic property, backed by a copied Data tree variable, offering a ComboBox choice of values in DigiPara Liftdesigner.
