Small bug in Directsoft
« on: December 04, 2013, 05:51:59 PM »
I pasted ladder from a 260 project into an 06 ladder.  It let me paste a rung that had C2000 in a contact. Would not let me download, flagged a syntax error correctly, but highlighted the instruction after the problem contact, which was a little confusing.

I tried this out and I think it's not a bug. If you bring up the XRef, you will see that C2000 reference is blank but the rung is still listed. Sense the reference is invalid, the editor will hi-light the next valid instruction. Even doubling clicking the rung address in XRef will cause the block cursor to hi-light the next valid instruction.

I think the software is working correctly as it allows you to transport your ladder logic even thou the ladder element ID is out of range. This way all you have to do is edit the bad elements instead of reinserting the whole rung.
