Last Logged Value Widget

Used by:  Counter,  Totalizer.

* Does not use the Style Settings tag.

The Last Logged Value widget is used to display the value last written to a log file (if any), for either a Totalizer tag or a counter tag.

The properties dialog for the Last Logged Value:

Font

Select one of the font tags (or parameter linked to a font tag) that you with to use to display the text. The display will use the default system font if you do not select a font tag.

The parameters button is enabled only if the tag is drawn on a page that includes a font parameter, or if the tag is part of a widget and the associated widget editor is open.

Note: While it is possible (and very easy) to modify the appearance of the text within this widget using the Format ribbon of the Idea Studio, you will find it much easier to manage a group of similar controls by defining a font tag and selecting that for each. Changes to all can then be made by adjusting the properties of a single font tag.

Digits after Decimal

Sets the accuracy with which the value is shown. This is for display only - there is no effect on the accuracy of the associated logged value.

Show Units

Sontrol whether the units defined within the Logger tag should be shown in this display.

Horizontal Alignment

Sets the position of the text within the display area. You may select left-aligned, right-aligned or centered. To align the display area itself with other elements on the page, see: Alignment and Positioning Tools.

Type of Border

Examples of the three border types are shown at the beginning of this topic.

Colors (Text and Background)

Opens the Select Color Dialog from which you can select the color of the text.

The background color against which the text will be displayed can also be defined.

Disable Options

Disable selected operator-interaction features of this widget.
