Is it possible to store the ID of the content screen displayed in a Content Display or Slide Content Display object?

Issue:

Unable to find a property that holds the ID of a content screen in EcoStruxure Operator Terminal Expert

Product Line:

EcoStruxure Operator Terminal Expert V3.2

Resolution:

Currently in EcoStruxure Operator Terminal Expert V3.2 SP2, it is not possible to retrieve the ID of a content screen displayed in a ContentDisplay or SlideContentDisplay object via a built-in system variable or property.

A workaround would be to create a script on each Content screen to set a variable each time it is opened. The variable would be used to hold the value written by the content screen currently loaded.

Please see the example application.

You will see that there are two content screens and in each of them, there is this script:

At Runtime, when the content screen is loaded, the variable varContentIDLoaded will be set to 1 for content screen 1 and 2 for content screen 2.
