Manage InTouch applications with the IDE

You can use the System Platform IDE to:

• Create a new managed InTouch application.

• Import an existing InTouch application to use as a managed InTouch application.

• Start WindowMaker.

• Submit the changes you make in WindowMaker to a managed InTouch application.

• Export and import a managed InTouch application together with its InTouchViewApp object.

• Publish a managed InTouch application.

• Delete a managed InTouch application.

• Import and export tag data used in a managed InTouch application.

• Export tag data to and import tag data from a .csv file.

• Switch languages for a Managed InTouch application.

• Add files to a Managed InTouch application.

• Associate all Galaxy graphics with an InTouchViewApp.

• Use an application template to create a Managed InTouch application.

You can start the System Platform IDE from the InTouch HMI Application Manager.

Note: Launching the IDE from a remote node, connecting to the GR node Galaxy, and opening the InTouchViewApp template causes the InTouch.Scripting.Service component to log errors. To avoid this issue, add the remote IDE machine to the groups aaConfigTools, aaAdministrators, and aaRuntimeUsers.

The following graphic shows how applications are imported, exported, managed, and published.
