Example 1: The default month specifications of a date object (1 = 01; 2 = 02, …
7 = 07, etc.) should be replaced by short names (1 = JAN, 2=FEBR ...
7=JUL….).
First select <Format> (1) from the menu bar and then <Object> (2) from the
drop down menu. Alternatively you can use the respective direct button (3) to
open the object settings dialog box.
The dialog box <Object Settings (Date/Time)> (5) opens.
Select the <Replacements> tab (4)
Select the element type „Months“ (7) from the <Type> drop down list (6).
Each element in the <Name> list (9) has a corresponding input field in the
<Replacement> field list (8). By setting the cursor into one of the input fields a
virtual keyboard opens (10). Enter the required replacements for each element
(1=JAN, 2=FEBR…..7=JUL….etc.) (11).
Confirm each input with the <Enter> button (12) of the keyboard.
Fill-in each required replacement in the <Replacements> field list (13). Run
through the list by using the scroll buttons (14).
Confirm all changes and close the dialog box with the <OK> button (16). Use
the <Cancel> button (15) to leave the dialog box without saving.
All changes are displayed in the editing window of the <Job editor> (17).
