Creating Macro Projects

You can use macro projects to manage your macros and automatically create macros.

Precondition:

You have created a basic project *.zw9.

  1. Select the following commands: File > New.
  2. In the Create project dialog create a new project as described in Creating a Project.

    EPLAN opens the Project properties: <Project name> dialog.
  3. Select the "Settings" Category in the Properties tab.

    Only the Type of project property is still displayed.
  4. Click here in the Value column on the associated field and select the "Macro project" setting from the drop-down list.
  5. Click [OK].

    The new macro project is created and can be edited like a "normal" project.

Tip:

Creating a new project is not the only way to create macro projects. You can also first create a schematic project, prepare corresponding schematics cut-outs for the macros to be generated, and then convert to a macro project by changing the project properties. To do this you only have to change the project setting Type of project to "Macro project" as described in Step 3.
