All the structure identifiers for the pages and elements in the page are displayed in a table on the pages and can be edited on this tab.
Overview of the main dialog elements:
In the table, the structure identifiers, page numbers, and sheet numbers defined for each project are displayed for the source (i.e. the source project or source macro) and the target project.
Source:
The data for the source project or macro is displayed in the fields for structure identifier (such as "=" for higher-level function, or "+" for mounting location), page number, and sheet number supplementary field. These cannot be edited here.
Target:
The data of the source project or macro are used as defaults in the target project fields and can be changed as desired: In the fields for the individual structure identifiers, you can use [...] to open a dialog offering the existing structure identifiers in the target project for selection. You can manually overwrite the page number and sheet number supplementary field.
Overwrite:
Selecting this check box defines whether an existing page is to be overwritten when a page or page macro is inserted.
Popup menu:
The popup menu provides - depending on the field type (date, integer, multilingual, etc.) - the following menu items:
Select this check box to determine the highest existing page number for the structure, and to suggest the next highest number / numbers for the Page name column.
You have opened the ESS_Sample_Project sample project, and selected the page =GB1+A1&EFS1/1 with the page description 400 / 230 V power supply in the page navigator. You then insert a single-page macro. The page name of the created page macro is initially the default setting in the Adapt structure dialog on the Pages tab (e.g. 5). Select the Automatic page name check box so that the page name changes to 2 since the highest assigned page number in the substructure is 1.
Opens the Number pages dialog. Define how the pages are to be numbered before they are inserted.
Resets the pages to the original structure. This can be useful if you want to insert multiple-page macros into a project, and want them to retain their original structure identifiers.
