Hi Scorpio810,
Thanks for your replay.
I think I did not made point 2 clear enough.
I know how to work with the "User text" fields in parts.
My question at point 2 is related to the "Element information" texts.
When I export a parts list of the project the "User text" fields are not there.
The data entered in a "User text" field is also not accessible in the referenced components (this works very nice with the "Element information" data).
1: I see it is in the HELP info... oops....
After I set it up properly it works, the next struggle is how to get the right info on the right place.
2: After creating some components myself and playing around with the "Element information" I managed to get something working. This brings me to a related question, is it possible to add extra "Element information" texts? I use Position numbers to adres each single part in the complete production lane. (more easy to locate one single motor for maintenance and support). I also would like to add the Amps of a motor and the Amps of the motor protection. I search the forum but was not able to find a good solution.
3: I did find how QElectroTech handles wires myself.
4: I understand no Macros in QElectroTech yet.
Thanks, I will try and let you know.
Hello Scorpio810,
Thanks for your quick reply.
1: I have read the help of the "Terminal Block Creation plugin" but I think I am missing something ....
After pressing the button "CREATE TERMINAL BLOCKS" I get a popup with the message "Choose terminal blocks to generate".
From then on, I have no idea what to do. (see image)

2: I hope someone can explain to me how best to do PLC I/O assignments in QElectroTech.
3: I actually meant how to do this in QElectroTech. I found an old topic: https://qelectrotech.org/forum/search.p … 1278777557 but I cannot find this feature in version 0.8
4: From your answer I understand that within QElectroTech you cannot work with Macros, but you can simply "cut" and "paste" instead.
I have been using QElectroTech for a few days now and am discovering what the possibilities are and how certain things work.
First, I would like to compliment the developers who have brought QElectroTech to what it is today. I did not expect such an OpenSource project to be available and I was pleasantly surprised.
I have found most of it on this forum, but I do not fully understand a number of things.
1: I do not yet fully understand how QElectroTech handles terminal strips and the associated terminal strip list. I found the "Terminal Block Creation plugin" but is is unclear how this works.... is there a instruction video?
2: I normally make a PLC overview page (see Page 5 in the test.qet file) and several pages for the inputs and outputs (see see Page 6 and 7 in the test.qet file).
In QElectroTech I am a bit lost. I am able to create the PLC overview page but I don't know how to create the input and output references containing the correct information linked to the correct in or output card.
3: Is there an instruction how to label the wires to create a wiring list?
4: I found this topic https://qelectrotech.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1212 about Macro's.
But I don't know if there are still plans to implement this feature or not?
I hope there is someone who is willing to help me.
