Visual Basic Description From Screen Attribute

Sorry, no. Per the help document:

"This is a brief description of the project screen, for your own convenience. It is not shown anywhere during run time."

If you want to know what screen is open you can load a string tag (for example "currentScreen") with a text value (for example "Test") using the "onOpen" screen logic (built in scripting) or Screen Script (VBScript).

Alternatively there is a way to do this with the Open function using custom properties, but the way I mentioned above is straight forward and easy.

Thank you Scott

Please Correct me if I'm wrong. (This is what you recommend)

1. Create a Strin tag

2. Include a Screen Script

3. Put the following code:

'This procedure is executed just once when this screen is open.
Sub Screen_OnOpen()
        ' Set the Name of the Screen
         $HMI_ScreenName = "My Screen Name"
End Sub

Best Regards and thank you
