When a model becomes complex, and with many kinematic-chains in each Mechanism-Editor, it becomes more difficult to identify to which kinematic-chain each FB applies. •You can use Briefcase FBs to hide Function-Blocks from the graphic-area •You can use different Briefcase FBs to group sets of Function-Blocks. •You can name the Briefcase FB to help you predict which FBs are 'inside' the Briefcase. •You can select and edit each Function-Block directly, from inside the Briefcase FB •You can rename each FBs directly, from inside the Briefcase FB •You can put a Briefcase FB 'inside' another Briefcase FB, also. •If you have good naming convention for your FBs, then a Briefcase FB is a good way to help you maintain your model. |
