Currently working well on a 27" 2560x1440 monitor. On a 28" monitor, full 4k, it works quite nicely for me... Win 10... with the exception that ALL fonts/text/icons are really small on such a monitor. That is not something from QET, rather something from the OS not taking into account pixel pitch. I use the latest QET nightly build. Even on my laptop 2880x... works just fine.

Except the regular Win10 resize from the full 4k to the 2560, nothing changes in QET when moving the window from one screen to another - all proportions stay the same.

Merci, monsieur! Works perfectly!

Trying to create a project with the following structure:

1 - page1
2 - page2
5 - page5

The pages will have id=1, id=2, id=3.

Initially I used spare pages in between, to keep all the references and numbering with the correct page number:

1 - page1
2 - page2
3 - spare
4 - spare
5 - page5

Then I discovered "Use label instead of folio ID" which I activated. AWESOME - I thought. Everything worked perfectly, I did not need the spare pages anymore.

Everything good, until I started placing coming and going arrows. The reference arrows still use the folio ID instead of the page label. Right now I have:

1 - page1
2 - page2
5 - page5

...with two linked arrows on page 2 and 5. The arrow on page 5 says "2 - A1" - ok. The arrow on page 2 says "3 - A1" instead of "5 - A1" - not ok.


Is that something normal? Is that a bug?

Yes, correct on the dynamic part.

Correct on the second part - would be nice to have the specs one time and link parts of the element if needed based on some kind of element ID.

Here's an example of what I have - a DI module that needs to be split on two pages. I would like the label to be the same on both pages for this module, being formed as page number - prefix - column - line. The name format is easy to implement, but on the second page, the page number is different. If I write the page number for the second module part as direct numbers, then it won't be dynamic anymore.

Just wondering if there was a way to link these modules with a common label property without having to go with a master/slave approach. The master/slave approach can add NO/NC contacts to the page... not quite the correct approach in this case.

Is there a way to split an element over pages? A I/O PLC module would be a good example. A 32 module, split on 4 pages, having the first instance set as master... the purpose is to keep the same label for all 4 instances.

Right now I will try to work around it by implementing the first instance as master, set it as coil, and have the next parts of the module as slaves - switch/contact type.

Hi Scorpio,

I followed the same process and it worked before.

I investigated more, and I identified that if the labels file is in my custom collection, it will not work. If I use only one label file in the original "element" folder, it works. So the solution to my problem would be this: use only the qet_labels file present in the original "element" folder and modify labels in that file, not in a new custom file.

I am trying to modify some prefixes for some elements. I did that before, by editing the qet_labels file, but now it doesn't work anymore. I am using a user collection of elements, removed the original collection. On the original collection doesn't work either. It worked a couple of months ago.

Anything I should do in order to get the prefixes to work? 

For element numbering, I have %F%prefix%c%l

Solution: run cmd as administrator.

Windows->Start->type "cmd", right click and "Run as administrator"->execute qet install command.

Here's a file with the error I get when trying to install the script (see attached file):

Hi,

I updated my Qet software a few days ago, and watching the "terminal generation" tutorial, I tried to run the script in the title. Installed python 3.6, installed the script in the python folder, but Qet doesn't recognize or find it for some reason. I get the same installation instructions window when I go to Project->Launch terminal block generation plugin.

Any advice?
