Environments configuration

This page explains how to create, configure, and manage environments at the project level.

All of the information on this page refers to the Project Resources modal:

Scenario Environments​

Adding a New Environment​

Creating new environments for your scenarios enhances the project's flexibility, as each environment is accessible from any scenario in the project. Note that the HMI context is an exception, since it can be created multiple times. To create a new environment, go to the "Environments" tab in the Resources modal and click "+ New".

  • When creating an environment, you must select its type. Remember that HMI contexts are the only type that can be added multiple times.
  • Choose a unique name for your environment and avoid names that already exist in the project.
Create new environment

Upon creation, the new environment appears in the scenario environments list:

Modifying an Environment​

To alter an environment, simply click on (edit icon) on the right side of the modal.

This action grants you access to the environment's configuration settings:

Name, Icon​

You can change your environment's icon and name to make your project and scenarios easier to use and organize.

Dimensions​

Here, you can define the dimensions of the environment and its grid. If an element is positioned at the environment's edge, it will appear truncated. To expand the workspace, simply adjust the "X maximum:" and "Y maximum:" fields. The grid dimension defines the movement step for all elements in the environment, which helps align elements (e.g., in 10px increments).
