Create a label

Create a label that displays temperature in a format adjusted to the locale of a logged-in user.
  1. Create the label:
    1. In Project view, right-click MainWindow (type) and select New > Base controls > Label.
    2. Hover-over the label, select Edit, and enter TemperatureLabel.
  2. Create a label variable:
    1. In Properties, at the top, select Add and select Analog variable.
    2. Create a complex dynamic link between the AnalogVariable1 property and the actual AnalogVariable1 variable by using EU Mode > Localize.
      DynamicLink
      ProjectName > Model > AnalogVariable1
      Configure
      EU Mode > Localize
  3. Create a complex dynamic link between Text and AnalogVariable1 with the use of a string formatter:
    StringFormatter1
    {0} {1}
    {0} DynamicLink
    ProjectName > UI > MainWindow (type) > TemperatureLabel > AnalogVariable1
    {1} DynamicLink
    ProjectName > UI > MainWindow (type) > TemperatureLabel > AnalogVariable1 > EngineeringUnits > DisplayName
