MES Artifact Version Selector | Vision
A component to allow selection of MES Artifact object versions.
This component would generally have its Selected MES Object property bound to the Selected MES Object property of an MES Object Selector (sample binding below).
Code |
Root Container.MES Object Selector.selectedMESObject |
This component would also generally have its Selected Artifact Name property bound to the Selected Artifact Name property of an MES Artifact Selector (sample binding below).
Code |
Root Container.MES Artifact Selector.selectedArtifactName |
Component Properties
Properties are provided that can be set to affect the operation and look of the component. They can be set through the Property Editor in the Designer or through scripting.

Event Handlers
Event handlers provide the ability to add custom script when a user interacts with a component such as by clicking a mouse, selecting a menu item or when a component property changes.
mouse
mouseClicked
This event signifies a mouse click on the source component. A mouse click the combination of a mouse press and a mouse release, both of which must have occurred over the source component. Note that this event fires after the pressed and released events have fired.

Extension Functions
versionSelected
- Description
Called when an MES Object version is selected.
- Parameters
self - A reference to the component that is invoking this function.
mesObjectVersion - The MESObjectVersion of the selected MES Object version.
- Return
1
- Scope
Client
Custom Methods
Custom methods allow you to add your own component functions to a component that can be called through scripting. This is a useful and clean method of re-using script that is specific to the component (say you want to update a visual aspect of the component in the same way whether a user clicks on the component or a window property value changes). See Component Custom Methods in the Ignition Help Manual for more information.

Customizers
This component does not have any custom properties.
Component Functions
This component provides the following function that can be called on it. If this component has been dropped onto the windows root container, the path and an example call would be event.source.parent.getComponent('MES Artifact Version Selector').refresh().
refresh()
- Description
Updates contents to reflect any updates to the database since the object was created, or since the last refresh. By default, refresh is automatic for local operations when view navigation touches an update.
- Parameters
None
- Return
Nothing
