Convert Project To Another Panel Type In iX Developer

Post by Russ C. »

Project Conversion From One Panel To Another Within iX Developer

Open your project in iX, and select the Project tab -> Settings -> Target Type and change it to your new HMI model and press “OK”:

You will then be shown this dialog, click Back Up Project

and give the zip file a descriptive name and select a path to store it, click OK then click Yes the previous window.

You may get 2 more prompts, I usually click yes to the Resize Content:

And no to the Aspect Ratio:

Then iX will make the needed adjustments to your project and once its finished, you can download the project to your new HMI.

The aspect ratio is referring to he objects on the screen.

Meaning if you developed objects in a 4:3 aspect ratio, and move to a 16:9 ratio and select "Yes", the objects will keep their 4:3 aspect ratio
