FORCELIST Window

The FORCELIST window, located in the Cross Function Area at the lower screen border collects all variables, which have been forced in any variables grid, data list, port list, or code worksheet, or in the WATCHES window. It provides commands for modifying force values or unforce variables/ports.

Note Depending on the controller type used, forcing is not supported in the current version.

You can hide/show the window by clicking the button shown left on the Cross Function Area toolbar. For closing the window, you can also click the cross icon on the right of the window title bar: How to pin/unpin the window in the Cross Function Area   You can open several windows in the Cross Function Area at the same time by pinning them. Only if pinned, a window remains visible when another window is opened. If a window is unpinned, it is closed when you open another window. To pin/unpin a window, click the pin icon in the upper right window corner. Unpinned windows show horizontal pin icon , pinned windows show the icon . How to undock/dock the window  / By clicking the 'Undock' icon in the window title bar, the window can be undocked from the user interface and placed anywhere on the screen (or on a second screen, if available). To insert it at its original position, click the 'Dock' icon .

If the debug mode is active and at least one new entry is added to the window while it is closed, the icon on the Cross Function Area toolbar is shown with an envelope icon.
