Configure an ST Library
You can use the ST Library Form to configure the settings for an ST Library. The Form allows you to:
- View the Name and configure the Help View for the ST Library. These settings are available on the Identification tab. For more information, see Defining Identification Details in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Configuration.
- Associate the ST Library with up to 4 custom pick actions by using the User Methods tab. For more information, see Using the User Methods Tab to Define Custom Actions in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Configuration.
