View the hierarchical name in a trend

A hierarchical name represents the fully qualified name of a contained object within Application Server. For more information, see Integration with AVEVA Application Server.

To view hierarchical names in a trend

• Do one of the following:

  • On the View menu, from the Canvas group select Hierarchical Name.

  • Right-click in the Tag Picker and click Use hierarchical name.

  The Trend application shows the hierarchical name instead of the tag name. For example, the Tag List, Data Log dialog box, and the Trend chart area show hierarchical names.
