How to convert local function to a global?

How to declare a new function without 'LOCAL' in front of it? When I create a new function via globals tab it appears in the code like that:

LOCAL NewFunction(One : Text)

But I see in the other objects that some functions don't have LOCAL in front of them and this (I believe) makes them accessible when the XML port is included.

I tried many different settings, including copying over the non-local function and it doesn't work.

I have the same question (0)

    Select the function on "C/AL Globals", click Properties button (Shift+F4), set "Local" to No.

    As suggested navigate to the function property and make Local as No.
