Numbering the program blocks
If you have selected the "Automatic numbering" option for the editor,
then the newly added program blocks are allocated a
block number (N
number).
The following rules apply:
•
When creating a new program, the first line is allocated the "first
block number".
•
If, up until now, the program had no N number, then the program
block inserted is allocated the starting block number defined in the
"First block number" input field.
•
If N numbers already exist before and after the insertion point of a
new program block, then the N number before the insertion point is
incremented by 1.
•
If there are no N numbers before or after the inser
tion point, then the
maximum N number in the program is increased by the "increment"
defined in the settings.
Note
:
After exiting the program, you have the option of renumbering the pr
o-
gram blocks.
