Adding XDF header catagories

[34blazer]

Trying to organize xdf items, how to I add the folder for each category? I can create a new category but not a folder to assign the items too.

you edit the xdf header and create categories there, then you have 3 layers of nesting for each item.

example:

you make a category, FUEL RELATED
then another category, INJECTOR CONFIG

then for the injector constant:
you set CATEGORY A to FUEL RELATED
CATEGORY B to INJECTOR CONFIG

that'll make injector constant be in fuel related->injector config->injector constant

make sense?

The folder will not show until something is in it.

So open a parameter, Right Click and Edit Parameter XDF Info, Catagory A will be the folder then the B-C will be Sub Folders.

oh also it wont update on its own. you gotta switch from category view to parameter type then back to category view again.
