Adding a history extension to a component
Extensions come in different types to match the data type of the component and the collection method. You add history extensions
by dragging them from the history palette and dropping them onto a component Property Sheet or onto the component in the Nav tree.
Perform the following steps:
- Open a component Property Sheet view.
- In the history palette, expand the Extensions folder to find the extension that matches your component data type and collection method.
- Click and drag the history extension from the palette to the bottom of the Property Sheet view.
Optionally, you can use the right-click menu to copy an extension in the palette and paste it onto the property sheet.
- In the Name window, enter the desired history name (or you can use the default name) and click OK.
The extension is added.
