9.2.20 Disabling the softkey depending on filters
Tag <FILTERCONFIGURATION> in combination with Tag <SOFTKEYLOCK>
Some softkeys can be
hidden depending on filter settings. For example, the "New Tool" softkey
is hidden if the filter "Only disabled tools" is set. This is not a good idea because the new tool
is not created as a disabled tool and is thus directly filtered out of the display. This means that
the new tool would not be displayed after being created.
Softkey identifiers of the softkey, which can be hidden:
Entries Meaning
NewTool New tool
Edges Cutting edges
Entries Meaning
FirstEdge Filter "Only first cutting edge," default setting "Edges"
StandBy Filter "Only tools that are ready to use," default setting "NewTool"
Active Filter "Only tools with active code," default setting "NewTool"
Locked Filter "Only disabled tools," default setting "NewTool"
Prewarning Filter "Only tools that have reached the pre-alarm limit," default setting "New‐
Tool"
RemainingPieces Filter "Only tools with remaining quantity," default setting "NewTool Edges"
MarkedToUnload Filter "Only tools with unload identifier," default setting "NewTool Edges"
MarkedToLoad Filter "Only tools with load identifier," default setting "NewTool Edges"
