Hello everyone, I have been task with adding a simple object to Wonderware after many years away from the platform. Wonderware has evolved significantly since I last used it, now operating within a managed setup utilizing Galaxies. I am unsure if I need to un-deploy the running galaxy in order to make changes. Can anyone provide guidance on how to add tags and objects within this setup? I have the IDE open and connected to the Galaxy, but I am struggling to add anything. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Andrew.
In the software development process, it is crucial to have separate trees for development and deployment. The development tree allows you to find, modify, and save project files, while the deployment tree is used to locate client information and deploy the project. This organized approach ensures smooth workflow and successful project implementation.
Hey Andrew, no need to undeploy your galaxy to add tags or objects. In fact, that's one of the beautiful things with WonderWare System Platform; you can make modifications while the system is online. To add new tags, you would go to your IDE and under the galaxy tab, navigate to the "attributes" section. From there, you can add new tags. For objects, you would select your area of interest, right click and choose "new object". The object wizard will help you create new necessary objects. Notably, the new objects or tags will not be visible in your running InTouch application until the Galaxy gets redeployed. Hope this helps, don’t hesitate to ask for further clarification!
Hi Andrew, no need to un-deploy the running galaxy for adding tags or objects. You can add objects directly to your galaxy while it's running. Basically, you go to IDE, then just right-click on the object folder or the area where you want to add the object, select 'New' from the drop-down and choose 'Object' or 'Instance'. You can also use the toolbar at the top by clicking on 'New Object'. Just make sure to save and check in your changes so they're picked up by the running galaxy. Hope this helps!
