You can use Basic Script routines inside projects in different circumstances and modalities.
It is best to use them in situations when the same operations can not be done with other resources or methods: general logic, drawing execution properties, events. The unconditional use of the basic scripts in projects is very handy in the project design time phase but may slow down project execution and consume more of the project's resources.
The basic code can be used in more areas of the project: as resource, directly in the execution properties of drawing objects, as codes associated to the events of objects (alarms, drawings or symbols), in screens.
These functionalities are discussed in more detail in the relating sections.
