Making Bound Label widgets

This procedure creates a new Bound Label widget using the Make Widget wizard. When you make a widget, the wizard window provides properties for creating the widget bindings.

1. In the Nav side bar, expand the tree to locate the component to add to the Px Editor canvas.
   The canvas opens.
   
   
2. Drag the component to the canvas.
   The Make Widget wizard opens.
   
   

   The ord for the selected component displays in the ord area (first red box).

3. For a different slot in the component (for example: out or value) or to bind to a different component, double click the ord and browse to the new location.
4. Select the Bound Label from the source options list (second red box).
   The source properties display below the source options list.
   
   
5. Configure the source properties (red box).
   The Make Display Name Label property creates a separate unbound label that appears directly beside the bound label when the widget displays on the canvas.
   
   
   
6. On the right side, edit the Bound Label properties.
7. To override an option, change it in the properties area and click OK.
   The Make Widget wizard closes and the new bound label opens on the Px Editor canvas.
   
   
8. Edit the display label properties using the Properties side bar on the right.
   These properties are available because you selected Make Display Name Label in the source options section of the wizard.
9. To toggle between the viewer and editor, click the view/edit mode icon () in the tool bar.
10. Confirm that the configuration works.
    For example, to activate the Fan above, right-click the graphic and click Active.
