Question about Crimson 3.0

Hello all,

I'm having a hard time creating a multistate push button, that will display information within the push button depending on the tags value. I'm currently using a primitive button and a data box, where as I would like to combine the two. Any advice?

Thank you for your time and help.

I don't know that I would do what you want to do since a pushbutton text usually tells a person what pressing the button does, but if you want to go forward, do this:

Suppose the Multi-State Tag is named MyTag. In the Text of the Button, type

=Astext(MyTag)

This will pull the formatted text from the Multi-State tag named MyTag.
