PLC Designer V3.16
Response of the new version:

- In existing projects, the following message appears when opening objects (e.g. a cam track) in the 'MotionObjects' object in the 'Objects' tab:
Please install the licence required for the Cam editor.
When does this behaviour occur?
The above-described behaviour occurs if the 'EASY Professional' licence is installed on your PC.
