Text and Outer Text
Any text you add with the Text menu or the Outer Text menu becomes part
of an object and is moved and copied with it. Do not confuse this display
text with Background Text.
For the different types of text (such as Inner Text, Outer Text and Button
Text) listed in the Text menu, the following choices are available.
Edit Text allows you to enter the state text for the object. State Text
appears inside the object; Outer Text appears outside the object. When
you enter text, remember to use the arrow keys to move from line to
line, and Enter to save the text.
Move Text moves the text.
Underline will make the text appear underlined.
Blink causes the text to flash on the PanelView terminal.
Foreground Color sets the color of the text and border.
Background Color sets the background color.
Reverse Video sets monochrome text in reverse video.
High Intensity sets monochrome text in high intensity.
Character Height sets the characters to single or double height.
Character Width sets the characters to single or double width.
Format
Use the Format menu to define the numeric formatting in Numeric Data
Displays, Numeric Cursor Points and Numeric Keypads. There are three
options:
Number of Digits specifies how many digits the Numeric Data Display
will have. You must specify a number between 1 and 8.
Fill Left specifies whether the characters to the left of the number
should be padded with zeros or spaces.
