Property reference

Fc9-prop-icon.png Properties
Fc9-type-11-icon.png Start Text
Set the text that will appear when the component is initialised. 
Fc9-type-14-icon.png Lines
Set the number of lines of text that the display will show. Lines will scroll off the top of the box once the display is full. 
Fc9-type-3-icon.png Font
Choose the font for the text. Any font installed on your PC can be used. If your file is opened on another computer which does not have the specified font, an alternative will automatically be chosen. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Horizontal Align
Choose whether text will be aligned to the left, right or centre of the box width. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Vertical Align
Choose whether text will be aligned wih the top, bottom or middle of the box height. 
Fc9-type-1-icon.png Text
Color for the text characters. 
Fc9-type-1-icon.png Background
Color for the box background. 
Fc9-type-1-icon.png Bezel
Color for the bezel (3D border) 
Fc9-type-15-icon.png Thickness
The thickness of the bezel (3D border). This thickness will be maintained even when the component is resized. 
Fc9-type-15-icon.png Margin
Set the margin size. This is used to insert a small blank space to the left and right of the text, so that characters are not placed right up against the bezel.
