Creating a Conditional Table

1. In the Component Manager, select a folder for the new conditional table.

2. Do one of the following:

   • In the Insert menu point to Class and select Conditional Table.

   • Use the Insert Class button:

     1. Click the arrow button and select the type Conditional Table.
     2. Click the Insert Class - Conditional Table () button.

   The new conditional table is created with a default name and layout.

   Note
   For workspaces, the length of the path is limited to 180 characters. When the path of the new component would exceed that length, an error message opens and the procedure is aborted.

3. Edit the name and press <Enter>.

4. Do one of the following:

   • In the Edit menu, select Open Component.
   • Press <Return>.
   • Double-click the selected element.

   The conditional table editor opens.

The public trigger method trigger is created automatically in every case. It is mandatory and cannot be deleted or renamed. You cannot add additional methods or diagrams.

The "methods" column is also created automatically. It is always at the end of the instruction area and cannot be deleted or repositioned. The table is empty apart from the "methods" column.
