Create a RecipePlus table

The RecipePlus table object lists the ingredients in the recipe file most recently selected in the RecipePlus selector and restored. It can also be used to edit the data values for ingredients and to save those edited values to the recipe file.

The table displays:

  • the name of each ingredient in the recipe (Ingredient name column)
  • the current value of each ingredient in the tag associated with the ingredient (Current value column)
  • the data value assigned to each ingredient (Recipe value column)
  • an X if the ingredient value is different than the tag value when the restore occurred (Compare status column)
  • the tag name associated with each ingredient (Tag name column)
  • the recipe file name, the recipe unit name, the number of visible ingredients and the total number of ingredients (status bar at the bottom)

To create a RecipePlus table

  1. In the Graphics Display editor, select Objects > RecipePlus > Table.
  2. Drag the mouse to position and draw a rectangle of the general size and in the general location that you want the table to be.
  3. Double-click the table to open its Properties dialog box.
  4. In the Properties tabs, specify how the table looks, how it will show recipes, and its common properties.

    Tip:

    There can only be one RecipePlus table on a graphic display. Attempts to add a second one produce an error message.
