Simple, Silly Question about DirectSoft 5
« on: May 28, 2009, 01:19:44 AM »
I have been using DirectSoft on and off for a couple of years, and I have one question that I havenot figured out while using DirectSoft5.

SCENERIO:
I have a normal ladder program with more than one rung, and I decide that I need to make a new first rung.  I know how to use the Ctrl-UpArrow, Ctrl-DownArrow, etc., but if I am in edit mode, and I put the cursor on the first contact on the current line 1, and then execute the Ctrl-UpArrow, nothing happens.

Is there a way to insert a new line 1, or do I just code the current line 1 with the new line 1 code, and then place the code from the original line 1 onto the new line 2?

Thanks for your replies!

I just did this today as a matter of fact.  Just put the cursor on rung 1 while in edit mode, and press Ins.  You'll get a dialog that asks if you want to insert a new Rung, Row, or Column.  Just select Rung and you'll get a new one before the old rung 1.
I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.

Oh, stop whining.  Your glasses are probably next to my muscle rub.
