I am trying to figure out how to create a list of strings, as in a multi-state indicator or string display, where a different string appears based upon the tag value. The catch is, this object will likely be used many times over. For this reason I'd like the text to be global so that if I need to add a state or modify the text on an existing state, I can change it in one place and every instance of that object will be effected.
I see at two purposes for such an application:
First is for displaying VFD error description rather than just a fault number.
Second is for displaying step description for common sequencers throughout the plant.
I'm still learning the ropes with FTView SE and I realize it's not necessarily a fan favorite. Back in the day, I'd create a multi-state indicator and be done with it. However, this doesn't seem to work as well in my situation because not all clients have the same screen resolution and when I've tried this in the past, some can see the whole text while others cannot.
Thanks in advance for your help!
