Converters
Use converters to transform the source value and then assign the value to the parent node.
Local converter
A local converter is specific to a singular complex dynamic link and cannot be reused in other complex dynamic links. See Complex Dynamic Link Editor and Create a complex dynamic link.
TIP:
If you intend to use a converter and its properties in a single complex dynamic link, create a local converter.
Converter type
You can use instances of a converter type in multiple complex dynamic links. This way, if you must update the converter logic, you do it once by editing the converter type. See Create a converter type.
TIP:
If you intend to use a converter and its properties in several complex dynamic links, create a converter type and then use the converter type instances in multiple complex dynamic links.
Converter example
An example converter in the
Complex Dynamic Link Editor
may contain:
Item | Description |
|---|---|
A | Parent variable where the value of the converter output is assigned. |
B | Converter output mode. |
C | Converter name. |
D | Converter properties. You can tie these properties to set fixed values manually, a dynamic link to a tag value, or multiple converters. |
E | Converter sources that are either dynamic links or other converters. |
