Reference of a machine module is not deleted from visualization (fixed as of V3.18)

Corrected from:
Project template ApplicationTemplate Standard as of V3.18
 
Response of the new version:
If the reference of a machine module in the global list 'MM_Dcl' is deleted, the associated visualization is also deleted.
 
What happens?
  • When opening the visualization L_Main a yellow box with an 'Alignment error' is displayed.
  • When the visualization L_Main is opened, visualization elements are displayed with '????'.
When does the behaviour occur?
The behavior described above occurs if a machine module reference is deleted from the global list 'MM_Dcl' (context menu command 'Delete Machine Module References'). In this case the corresponding visualization page is not deleted from the frame selection of the visualization L_Main.
 
Which products are affected?
Project template ApplicationTemplate Standard from V3.17
 
Short-term measures:
Manually delete the visualization page of the deleted machine module reference. Proceed as follows:
  1. open the element list of the visualization L_Main (menu command Visualization>Element list)
  2. select the element '#5 Frame'
  3. open the context menu command 'Frame selection' in the visualisation area
  4. delete the visualization page in the 'Selected visualizations' area.
Evaluation/Recommendations:
If a machine module reference is deleted from a PLC Designer project, the associated visualization is not deleted. An application solution is described under Short-term measure.
