The caption
that appears with the trend curser is a collection of basic Citect
graphics objects. They make use of grouping and the movement
properties to follow the curser across the screen. If you would
like to modify the information on the curser follow the steps
below, also review Q2873.
- Backup an
original copy of the CSV_Include and restore the project with a
different name eg. My_CSV_Include.
- Open the trend template in the
resolution which you intend to use in the main project and use
SaveAs under a new name.
-
Locate the text box, Make a
note of the group object settings then ungroup once to remove the
lower triangle from group. Make a note again of the group property
settings them ungroup again to separate the text from the
background rectangle.
-
Adjust the rectangle to the
size you desire and add any information fields you require.
-
It will be necessary to
recreate the groups and reset the properties of those
groups.
-
Finally run a page update in
the include project and possibly the main project then compile the
project and test.

Note: that the object groups
are tricky to work with if the object layers are changed, it might
be easier to create a genie if a number of captions are
required.
