Property Value Description
Nav Name text
Defines an identifier for the nav group. This name appears in the menu if no Display Name is specified. You may want to use this property for a design-logical name and use the Display Name as a more user-friendly name.
Display Name (BFormat general) text
Defines a BFormat string used to format text by using values obtained from objects.

You specify this string as normal text with embedded scripts identified by the percent (%) character. The driver maps calls within the script to an object’s methods. Use the dot operator (.) to chain calls. To insert a percent symbol itself, use two percent symbols (%%).

For examples, click the question mark icon next to this property.

Parent Path drop-down list
Defines where in the hierarchy to place a new menu item. A hierarchy of options matches the current navigation structure. You can choose the menu or submenu here to specify where, in the overall system navigation hierarchy, to place your new menu item.

For example, to place a menu item under the Remote Devices submenu, choose the Remote Devices option in this property.

Icon path
Defines where the icon used for this column is located.
Index (Snmp) number
Displays the value that corresponds to the column index of the object created for it in the Input or Output Table.
