[en] Global variables are a type of variables that can be used on different labels. Global variables are defined outside the label file and remember the last-used values.
[en] Global variables are typically defined as global counters. Such global variables provide a unique value for every label that requests a new value. File locking takes place ensuring uniqueness of each value.
[en] Global variables are defined in label designer, the NiceLabel Automation only uses it. The source for global variables is configurable in the Options dialog (File > Options > Global Variables).
[en] By default, NiceLabel Automation is configured to use global variables from local computer. Their default location is:
%PROGRAMDATA%\NiceLabel\Global Variables
[en] Global variables are defined in files GLOBAL.TDB
and GLOBALS.TDB.SCH
.
[en] In multi-user environments, make sure you configure all clients to use the same network-shared source for global variables, or Control Center-based global variables.
注意
[en] Definition and current value for global variables can be stored in a file or in Control Center (for LMS Enterprise and LMS Pro products).
