There are two types of digital display components
in this set.
The first, FISDigits,
allows you to display positive and negative numbers. You can set
properties such as number of digits, digit color, number of decimal
places, whether or not to show leading zeroes, and so on. The component
automatically rounds values to the proper place based on the number
of decimal places shown.
The second, FISDigitsX,
a subclass of FISDigits,
allows alphanumeric text (with a left or right justification
option). Some basic punctuation is provided (dash, for example),
but you can add your own or change the style of the characters and
numbers by editing the movie clips. The component uses the ASCII
value of the character to jump to the corresponding frame of the
movie clip, so you can define your own symbols (or upper and lowercase
characters) as needed, when they're not already provided.
Both displays are easy to set as they use a val
property that handles updating the display as well. |
