How to add an additional display bar at the max value displayed by NumericTank?

Using Numerictank as a display of data, how can one generate a display bar at the top of each numerictank update? Also, is there a way to increase the size of the non-filled bar display, currently it is a thin line.

Hi,

In CVI the Tank indicator can include a numeric display to tell you the current value, if what you need is to have an extra slide to display the value you can create a separate slide indicator and every time you cahnge the value you update also the slide indicator.

If by the "non-filled bar display" you mean the line that separates the uper part of the tank with the lower part, then you can only change the color of this line, the width is fixed.

I may be out of line here, so please let me know if this helps.

Juan,
Thanks for the info, turns out what I am looking for would look like a "peak hold" on the numerictank display. I'll try superimposing an indicator which is normally hidden but is made visible on the next update of the numerictank with the peak value. Probably have to make the superinposed indicator normally transparent. Might actually work...
