# Missing Labels and Text

Due to a bug in the window manager of the AMLEditor if you are using the theme "Metro Light" the text and icon will not be visible on startup. To fix this, simply select another theme using "View" > "Change Theme". (See also this issue)

# AML Devices Format

The Plugin creates Devices with the following DeviceIdentification InternalElement:

<InternalElement Name="DeviceIdentification" ID="%DEVICEID%">
<Attribute Name="CommunicationTechnology" AttributeDataType="xs:string" />
<Attribute Name="VendorName" AttributeDataType="xs:string">
<Attribute Name="DeviceName" AttributeDataType="xs:string"/>
<Attribute Name="DeviceFamiliy" AttributeDataType="xs:string"/>
<Attribute Name="ProductName" AttributeDataType="xs:string"/>
<Attribute Name="OrderNumber" AttributeDataType="xs:string"/>
<Attribute Name="ProductText" AttributeDataType="xs:string" />
<Attribute Name="IPProtection" AttributeDataType="xs:string" />
<Attribute Name="VendorHompage" AttributeDataType="xs:string" />
<Attribute Name="HardwareRelease" AttributeDataType="xs:string" />
<Attribute Name="SoftwareRelease" AttributeDataType="xs:string" />
<Attribute Name="OperatingTemperatureMin" AttributeDataType="xs:double"/>
<Attribute Name="OperatingTemperatureMax" AttributeDataType="xs:double"/>
<Attribute Name="VendorId" AttributeDataType="xs:integer"/>
