GX developer: What's the difference between 'Insert Line' and 'Insert Row'?

[Mas01]

So far, for adding new rungs I've been using INSERT LINE, but I notice that INSERT ROW is also in the drop-down list.
So, what's the difference? Seems ambiguous, to me.


Edit: Another question: STATEMENTS are limited to 64 characters. Can this be increased?

Why don't you try it and see what the difference is ?

Looks like you're right!

By looking at that probably not, if you were asking what would happen if you removed an output card when powered then fair enough but this sort of thing is about learning, just have a crack and see what happens...

Agree. print out 10-15 pages of logic and have a go and typing them into a dummy project and learn the basics of the editor

Thanks. I know the difference now.

Just an FYI,
Hotkey for insert line is shift+insert.

I've always used ,shift insert.
And for your info, ctrl and insert moves everything right from where the cursor is so you can fit an extra bit in the line.
