CISS List Literal Plug-in Where Used Dialog Box
This plug-in is used to determine where literals are used in programs. Since every literal in Gen is a different object, finding and changing literal values is a problem. This plug-in allows you to find literal values, determine the action block that the literal is used in, and mass update the literal value.
When the plug-in opens no literals are displayed. First select the type of literal from the dropdown listbox in the upper left corner. Then enter a filter value. The filter value is not required but given the large number of literals that can exist in a model this is a good idea. The filter field doesn't allow for wild carding but works similar to a "like" query. Lastly press the "Search" button to populate the list box.
After the list box is displayed you can select one or more literals. You can also press the "Select All" button to select all the literal values displayed.
When literals have been selected the following version of the list box is displayed. The "Get Action Blocks", "Select All", "Deselect", and "Update" buttons are displayed.
Get Action Blocks
You can look at the list of action blocks that reference the selected literals. To do this press the Get Action Blocks button. A new dialog box will open.
