If you include"%<PREFIX>" into the text, you can enter instead of "PREFIX" a certain
string, which will serve as an identifier concerning the use of dynamic texts. The prefix
will be used together with an ID number, which is to be defined in the 'Variables'
category of the configuration dialog in field 'Textdisplay'. The combination references
to a certain text, which is defined in a xml-file available for this purpose and listing all
possible dynamic texts. Thus at run time the text which is indicated by the current ID-
Prefix-combination will be displayed. For further information see also the description
of Language Switching. See there also information on the usage of Unicode-Format.

The configured text will appear online in the prescribed alignment within the
element: horizontally left, center or right and vertically top, center or bottom.

Via button Font the dialog for font selection will appear. Choose the desired font and
confirm with OK. (The list of offered fonts depends on the target system.) The
Standard-Font button can be used to assign the currently valid standard font to the
element. That is defined in the visualization settings in category Display.

Textvariables

In category Textvariables of the dialog for configuring visualization elements you can
specify a variable which should dynamically set color and font of that string which is
defined in category 'Text'. At best enter the variable name with the aid of the input

assistant (<F2>).

You can also use components of the structure VisualObjectType to set the text
properties. For this see the description of category 'Programability'; there you will find
the possible values of the particular structure components and their effect.

Note!

If there are corresponding static definitions in category 'Text', these will be
overwritten by the dynamic parameter values.

In case of multiple definition of an element property consider the specific order of
precedence concerning according to which a value might be overwritten in online
mode by another.
