Properties of a Technical Process (.wrf)

Technical Processes (.wrf) are modelled graphically using the Process Editor. Processes can be executed on the X4 Server, if all components were parameterized and linked correctly with repository files.

You can edit the properties of a process in the Properties view, by clicking on a free area of the Process Editor's workspace.

The most common properties are displayed by default, however, additional settings can be made using the Properties view toolbar:
