Hello,

yes, this is possible. Please take care for the case sensitivity (Linux!) of the panel names, when accessing them.

best regards
Rainer

WinCC handles the different directory separators ( \\ in windows and / in linux) pretty well by automatically converting them, so you don't have to worry about that if your panel scripts are doing file access.

What you have to be careful with though is system() commands in your panels scripts.
If you are using them you may need to adapt the commands to the operating system.
This can be done with the help of the predefined constants _UNIX and _WIN32
