Overview

The declaration editor is used to declare variables of POUs and global variables, for data type declarations, and in the Watch and Receipt Manager. It gives access to the usual Windows functions, and even those of the IntelliMouse can be used if the corresponding driver is installed.

In Overwrite mode, 'OV' is shown in black on the status bar; switching between Overwrite and Insert modes can be accomplished with the <Ins> key.

The declaration of variables is supported by syntax coloring.

The most important commands are found in the context menu (right mouse button or <Ctrl>+<F10>).

Consider the possibility of using pragmas to affect the properties of a variable concerning the compilation resp. precompilation process.
