I've never done nested AOI's and tried to link it to FTView, but...
If you nest an AOI, the nested AOI will be a Local Parameter of the "main" AOI (as opposed to an Input or an Output).
Local Parameters are never "browseable" by FTView - i.e., you can't open up your tag browser and select it.
But...
You can still manually address them. Let's say I have an AOI called Motor1, with a Local Parameter called "RunOnTime", of type DINT. My FTView tag browser will find Motor1, and all it's Input and Output parameters, but not RunOnTime. However, I can still manually address Motor1.RunOnTime, and it will display correctly on a PanelView Plus or other FTView device at runtime. IF - and ONLY if - I first set the RunOnTime external access parameter to something other than "None", which it is set to by default. I must set it to Read Only or Read/Write, and then FTView can access it.
I've never taken it any further than that, so I can't vouch for what I'm about to say next, but I think it's worth a try:
If my Local Parameter was RunOnTimer of type TIMER, I *think* that in the same manner I would be able to manually address Motor1.RunOnTimer.PRE or Motor1.RunOnTimer.ACC or Motor1.RunOnTimer.DN
If this is the case, I see no reason that I couldn't do the same thing with nested AOI's:
Motor1.LimitStart.Active (where Motor 1 is the "main" AOI, LimitStart is the nested AOI, and Active is a BOOL tag of the nested LimitStart AOI.
Obviously, if this works at all, you'll need to set external access to at least Read Only for each nested AOI and it's elements.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes!
