That's different.  Usually Christian shows me yet another, more efficient way, to code something.  Well, I guess you can't get more efficient than no code.

Well, I added a link to one of my examples that has the same amount of code, but eight controls. This is more efficient "per control". 😄

You can "link" as many controls as you want this way, have a look at this old example with eight linked controls (and a single terminal!). (posted here)

No. It is just a control customization. In the control editor, you can replace the digital display of a slide with another slide, which again has a digital control that you can replace with a nother control that has a digital control, and so on.

Wow, that was simple!

Thanks crossrulz for the quick answer and thanks altenbach for the indented controls example, that's a pretty neat trick.
