■ Active: (It is unavailable if the drawing is a new drawing and was
not saved) Selects the active drawing name to use as the Image
file. For example, if the active drawing name is “demo005,” then
the image file edit box has “demo005” listed as the file name.
If the circuit drawing file name contains the path of the drawing file
referring to the User folder or the wd_userckt_dir defined folder, the
browsed image is copied to the User folder if wd_userckt_dir is dis-
abled in the .env file or the wd_userckt_dir defined folder if
wd_userckt_dir is enabled in the .env file.
If the circuit drawing file name contains the path of the drawing file
that does not refer to the User or wd_userckt_dir defined folder, the
browsed image is copied to the Images folder and saved as a relative
path in the .dat file. Enclose the image path in quotation marks if you
do not want the image copied to the Images folder and to save the
complete path instead of the relative path in the .dat file. The entered
image file name can be names like "PB1" or "CONTROL RELAY," file
names with an extension such as “pb1.png,” or it can follow the
syntax {slide_library or dll file (slide or .png)}. For example, "S2(pb)"
or "S7(control_relay)."
NOTE The image file name cannot contain invalid characters such
as \ / : " ? < > | and only .png and .sld image files are supported.
