Bug using system.tag.copy in Ignition 8.3

Ignition

I found a bug in Ignition 8.3 when using system.tag.copy.

How i produced the bug:

  1. I have a UdtInstance called UdtInstanceA, and it has a tag inside it called testTag. i have set testTag.enabled = False

  2. I then run: system.tag.copy(UdtInstanceA,UdtInstanceB)

  3. UdtInstanceB.testTag.enabled is now equal to True, so this property has not been copied over to the new one.

It did not work this way in earlier versions.

Ignition version: 8.3.0

It seems like there is a problem with how ignition is migrating UDT instances with tags inside them using system.tag.copy will replicate it on my end and if it an issue write up a ticket for it. thanks for the info

Hi BVTV was able to replicate the issue where when using the system.tag.copy function some the configurations are not being moved over. This issue is also in 8.1 will write up a ticket for it so it can be looked at and fixed. Thanks for the info
