Save Position and delete lines

#1
I have two questions:
1. How can I remove the yellow lines? I know how to prevent them from appearing, but I would just like to delete the existing ones.
2. When creating programs, is it possible to include the position names as well as the coordinates?

Thanks in advance.

You should be able to hide the yellow lines of the robot programs by right clicking on a program and unchecking the option "Visible" (shortcut is F7).

What do you mean by position names as well as the coordinates? You can display the targets and/or reference frames by right clicking on them and checking or unchecking the "Visible" option (F7 shortcut).

This screenshot shows the names of the positions I've assigned in the program. However, when I save a program, only the coordinates are displayed, not the names.

If you hide the target it won't display the coordinate or the name in the 3D window.

I'm not sure if I properly understand this issue. If you can send us your RDK project file we may be able to better understand the issue.

When I add a target, it’s simply called Target1. Now I right-click – Rename – pPick1.
When I save the programme to my Laptop now, it displays the tool and the frame with those names.
However, the position pPick1 is missing from the declaration. All I can see there are coordinates.
Aren't these names included when saving?

OK I understand what you mean now.

The name of the instruction can be different from the target name. The name of the instruction is automatically set when you first link it to a target.

You can simply relink each target or hide and show targets so the movement instructions are automatically renamed.

.mod   Grip1_Place1.mod (Size: 1.94 KB / Downloads: 14)
The positions are included in the simulation. When I download the programme, e.g. Grip1_Place.mod, only the names of the tool and work object are included. The names of the positions, however, are not. This makes it almost impossible to read the module in an editor when there are many positions, as only the coordinates are shown and not the position names to which they are linked.

You can use the post processor called ABB RAPID IRC5 Robtargets to export MOD files to your robot controller including target names.

RoboDK will generate one robtarget with the correct name for each movement.
