Text digital displays are used to display text signals. Up to 256 characters are allowed.

In terms of basic operation, this element is similar to the digital numeric display (see Numeric digital display). You can also add the digital text display via the view menu or the toolbar and use it in ibaQPanel.

The fundamental difference is that the source signal for the display is text signal. The text can be both received from the outside as well as entered via a text input element in ibaQPanel.

The following figure shows the relationship between the display and the settings:

1. Properties of frame and caption, headline optional

2. Properties of the text display; the font size of the display text is calculated automatically and can only be influenced by resizing the text display (using the mouse).
