In Citect SCADA 2016, how to import libraries from another project

Hello All,

We are working in Citect scada 2016 (version 8.0). We have a referance project with its own library of Symols, genies etc. We want to same library.

If we include the referance project in our porject then entire library is availble for use however we want to avoid that for some other reason.

Is there any method by which we can export library of symbols/genies from other project and import in current devolopement projects.

Thanks in advance...

  • Symbols and genies are stored in *.ctl and *.ctm library files. So far I have had no issues when I copy these files from one project to another. Do not attempt this with graphic pages however (*.ctg / *.ctf) as this WILL cause problems.

  •   is correct, from my experience also. We can copy library files between projects, and also rename the libraries (then its needed to pack libraries and update pages, replacing the links of the symbols and genies, easy if you do just one library at a time) and if we want to delete the library the only way is deleting the files. I hope that with new versions they don't broke this.
