Introduction

Readout-tables, dials, and meters, items of the READOUT-TABLE, DIAL, and METER classes, respectively, are displays that show values as they change.

Updating each of these display items causes data-seeking, which can establish new valid data and cause event updates to occur.

Caution: Do not confuse the display meters described in this chapter with G2-meters. A G2-meter is a special class of quantitative variable you can create to monitor G2 performance and memory utilization, as described in Chapter 44, G2-Meters.

G2 Dynamic Displays

The G2 Dynamic Displays utility allows you to add dynamically generated radial, linear, and floating graphical attribute readouts to icons. For more information, see the G2 Dynamic Displays User's Guide.
