Built-in aliases

FactoryTalk Optix Studio
comes with built-in Session, Window, and RecipeSchema aliases.

Window aliases

FactoryTalk Optix Studio
provides the
{Window}
WindowTitle
alias. You can use this alias to reference to the application window properties and graphical objects that are present in that window.

RecipeSchema aliases

At design time, the project root node contains an alias for each
RecipeSchema
instance in the project. This alias has the same name as the related
RecipeSchema
object. The project also contains a
Panel loaders
object. Access the
RecipeSchema
aliases from any node that have the same BrowseName as the corresponding objects in the project. For example, a
PanelLoader1
alias is generated for a
PanelLoader1
object.
TIP:
FactoryTalk Optix Studio
creates the aliases for
Recipe Schema
objects inside the project root node.

provides the
{Session}
Session
alias in the dynamic links window to set the property for graphic and
Report
objects.
FactoryTalk Optix Studio

Session
alias. This system alias points to the
Session
node that exists only at runtime. This alias contains several nodes that have values based on the user and session locale. At design time. this alias is always available for graphic objects and types.
