Changing the display name for a control element

You can change the display option for the name for any of the control elements available for a panel diagram. When you create a control, by default the system displays the name of the element (for example, Gauge_1 and Meter_5). You can use the Control Display Options window to change the display option for the name of your control element.

Procedure

  1. Right‑click a control on the panel diagram and select Display Options to open the Control Display Options window.
  2. In the Control Name area, select a radio button:
    • Bound element full path displays the full path of the bound element (for example, Default.itsClass_0.speed).
    • Bound element displays the name of the bound element (for example, speed).
    • Name displays the name of the control (for example, Gauge_1). This is the default.
    • None does not display any name.
  3. Click OK.
