Shortcut: <Enter>
With the command you load a selected object within the 'Object Organizer' into the respective editor. If a window with this object is already open, then it gets a focus, is moved into the foreground and can now be edited.
There are two other ways of opening an object:
-
Doubleclick with the mouse on the desired object
-
in the Object Organizer, type the first letter of the object name. This will open a dialog box in which all objects of the available object types which have this initial letter are shown. Actions are listed with the notation <POU name>.<action name>. Due to the fact that the objects in the object selection dialog are listed alphabetically, the actions of a POU always get positioned below this POU. Select the desired object and click on the button 'Open' in order to load the object in its edit window. Hereupon the object gets also marked in the object organizer and all folders which are hierarchically placed above the object will get expanded. This option is supported with the object type 'Resources' only for global variables.
