Does anybody know how to get a specific text from a text list within a program. Obviously it works in a visualization, but because I will have an HMI that has it's own system and I will have to send variables to this HMI via an OPC UA connection, I need to be able to get a text into a string.

I tried using the VisuElems like this, but it only returns an empty "" and nothing else.

IF trig THEN
    sText := VisuElems.cmpDynamictext.DynamicTextGetDefaultText(ADR(sTextList), ADR(sAlarmID))^;
    //sText := VisuElems.cmpDynamictext.DynamicTextGetText(ADR(sTextList), ADR(sAlarmID))^;
    trig := FALSE;
END_IF

Any help and idea is highly appreciated because I am getting desperate here.

I think you will find something in the libary TexlistUtils: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/TextListUtils/Current/index.html

Are your texts WSTRING? maybe you should try WSTRING versions.

I have a vague memory of having to switch to TextListUtils library also.
