[foxboro] DM prepick variables

Hi everyone,I am facing a problem related to DM Prepick variables in 
FoxView/FoxDraw. I have created some generic overlays in FoxDraw to call AIN 
and PID faceplates and trends. I have configured the related display objects to 
open overlays using dmcmd relative pick command in Action tab of object 
configuration window.The object configuration to open a generic PID overlay is 
as follows. = $PICK1  Compound:Block
ov_conn -cb $PICK1 -file /opt/disp/generic/GEN_PID -l UR$PID_FP
 
Where Compound:Block represents the compound and block names used in actual 
configuration.
 In the above configuration I have used $PID_FP to use DM prepick variables 
property as defined in /usr/fox/wp/data/wp51_glbls but it is not working on the 
overlays. On the other hand the faceplates which are configured on base 
displays works fine with DM prepick variables property and automatically 
selects .OUT parameter of PID when switched to manual mode and .SPT parameter 
when switched from Remote to Local. If anyone have some idea of the problem, 
kindly advise. Rgds,Ali Ahmed Zahidi
