Text

This component inserts a configurable text element.

The following display options are available in Properties > Behaviour > Text field function:

  • Static - Contents of the Properties > Appearance > Text label field.

  • Area name - Name of the selected area.

  • Channel name - Name of the selected channel.

  • Active preset - Currently active preset scene in the selected area.

  • Channel level - Current level of the selected lighting channel.

  • User defined text - Displays the Active text if one of the selected presets is currently active. Otherwise, the Inactive text is shown.

  • Setpoint temperature - Temperature setpoint for the selected area.

  • Current temperature - Current actual temperature for the selected area.

  • User key value - Displays the value of the selected Project Settings > Key/Value pair.

  • Logged in user - Displays the username of the currently logged-in user, otherwise 'guest'.

Only the Properties > Appearance > Text label is shown in UI Creator, so ensure that dynamic text components are helpfully labelled.
You can view the dynamically generated text in Preview, or after uploading the UI to the PDTS.
