Description
This function generates a text signal. It can only be used in the signal table Analog of a suitable module (e.g. virtual module or output module)
The generated text signal can be used like other text signals, e.g. in a text creator module, a text digital display or a QPanel label.
You may use placeholders %1, %2,... in the text. The placeholder %n will be replaced by the counter value which increased every n samples.
