MES Artifact Version Selector

Sepasoft MES Module Suite

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.

Example

Code
event.source.parent.getComponent('MES Artifact Version Selector').visible = True

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.

PropertyDescription
.sourceThe component that fired this event.
.buttonThe code for the button that caused this event to fire.
.clickCountThe number of mouse clicks associated with this event.
.xThe x-coordinate (with respect to the source component) of this mouse event.
.yThe y-coordinate (with respect to the source component) of this mouse event.
.popupTriggerReturns True (1) if this mouse event is a popup trigger. What constitutes a popup trigger is operating system dependent, which is why this abstraction exists.
.altDownTrue (1) if the Alt key was held down during this event, false (0) otherwise.

.propertyNameThe name of the property that changed. NOTE: Remember to always filter out these events for the property that you are looking for! Components often have many properties that change.


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
