is it proper to branch around a timer with a latching bit
instead of writing a new rung ?

Siemens had a function where you could turn the descriptions off in order to see more rungs and more instructions per rung
We all have our preferences for sure. I would rather scroll one rung than have to dive up and down from rung to rung.but when I'm bug testing I like to see a whole rung at a time rather than having to scroll the screen to see the whole rung.

Siemens had a function where you could turn the descriptions off in order to see more rungs and more instructions per rung. This was nice, hopefully AB considers it. Not seeing an entire rung makes troubleshooting a momentary problem difficult. That being said, Bob is right, there's no law or anything against it, and if that works best for him, then it is right for him. The same would go for you.
