Johannibal Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Hi everyone, I'm trying to create a Data Tag that displays the required cable length at the break points of a cable. So far, this works and looks like this: #CableObject#.#UsedPartsOrdered# However, the result currently shows something like: "2.5mm² Harting 6ch 30m" – which reflects the full Name from the Cable Parts table. What I would prefer instead is a shorter format like "HB30m", which corresponds to the Short Name field. Is there a way to have the Data Tag display the Short Name of the cable instead of the full Name? Any help would be greatly appreciated – thanks a lot! Viktor Quote Link to comment
