Multiple folders are separated with a semicolon. CODESYS uses the directory, for example to import or export image files.

Activate property handling in all element properties

: You can also configure a visualization element with a property in those properties where you select an IEC variable. Then CODESYS creates additional code for the property handling when a visualization is compiled.

Requirement: Your IEC code contains at least one Interface property object type (a .property).

Requirement: The Visible option is selected.

Activate implicit checks for visualization POUs

: The implicit check is also performed for visualization POUs. As a result, additional code is generated, which increases memory usage. When memory is limited, this option should be disabled.

Symbol libraries

List of all installed symbol libraries (example: VisuSymbols)

Active

: The symbol library is selected in the project and CODESYS makes it available in the Visualization Toolbox view of a visualization.
