# Does Copia render safety blocks in TIA Portal?

## Copia renders safety blocks as long as they are not know-how protected

Copia will render safety blocks without know-how protection. If the safety blocks are know-how protected, they will appear with an exclamation icon next to them and will show the following message.

If the entire TIA Portal project is password protected, Copia does not support rendering.
