View source for Selecting Component Macros

:''See [[Component Macro Icon Properties]] and [[Simulation Macro Icon Properties]]''

Select a [[Component Macro Icon Properties|Component Macro]] and bring up the [[Editing Icon Properties|icon properties]], there will then be a list of all available component macros from the components currently being displayed on the [[Dashboard Panel]] and [[System Panel]].


Some Component Macros require parameters and return values to function, these may also be used with [[Creating Variables|variables]] and constants, which allows you to engineer a program to enable interaction with components to create an effective system.

Component Macros are displayed in a list organised in groups of each component and its functions/macros, they are displayed in a tree structure for clear and easy access.


[[Simulation Macro Icon Properties|Simulation Macros]] can also be selected using the same method and serve a similar purpose, the only difference is that these macros are for simulation only and therefore cannot be run on hardware.
