Add slot label manually

Hi,

I want to add slot label to one rack manually. What I did is adding the "slotLabels" and "resetLabels" into the tree of rack2. Then I test if it works by using the "Matching Labels" strategy. But it didnot work.

Here is the test model, in the model I use the "slot label painter" to add slot label to rack1 which worked well, I added slot label manually as mentioned which worked badly.

I wonder if I missed any steps? Looking forward to your answer.

testV20.1.fsm

Software Version:

FlexSim 20.1.1

flexsim 20.1.1 slot label

The attached file sets some slotlabels in levels of 2nd rack to value 2 by source code in On Message trigger of the BasicFR Object. The activation source code is in a script window.

Model.find("BasicFR1").as(Object).message(0,NULL,1);

The source code function is

function_s(slots[indexSlot], "paintLabel", "myLabel", labelValue, 1);

The parsed Parameters are in following order:

slot
"paintLabel" the called function
"labelName" as a string
labelValue as the value of the label you want set
"1" I don't know but is maybe a default value.

Thank you very much.

When I reset the model, the label will disappear. Can this be solved?

I have updated my answer and attached a changed model. But I still don't know how to erase slot labels now!
