Solved!
Go to solution

I'm going thorough a code which has huge set of shared variables and in some nodes I find a blue colored mark/thing just bottom left to the globe as shown below.  What does this indicates?

I found the answers from my team member.  The blue mark actually indicates a dot and a slash ".\" which means Target Relative Shared Variable.  If the Shared Variable is Absolute, then this indication will not be shown.  To know more about the difference between Absolute and Target-Relative shared variable, check it out here.  A Shared variable node can be swtiched between Absolute and Relative using

 

Context menu (right click the node)->Reference mode.

 

Thanks,

Ajay.
