Hello,

I'm trying to use an array of custom UDT in ignition, this is what the tags looks like in the PLC:

But, when browsing in ignition it looks like this. Is there a way to display the tags similar to how it looks in the PLC? As it is now, I can't see any tags... 😕

Drag and drop won't result in a mirrored structure in this case because Ignition's tag system doesn't support tags underneath other tags, only underneath folders.

You can create a corresponding Ignition UDT for `dut_watering` and then create instances of it, though.
