Issue:
How can we display the Date and Time at the cursor position on the Trend object?

Product Line:
EcoStruxure Machine SCADA Expert (all versions)

Resolution:
The date and time at the cursor position is not directly available on the trend graphic. In order to display it, some elements must be configured.

1- Create a global "String" tag that will receive the date and time:

Project Explorer - Global tab - right click on "Tag List" to insert a tag.

In the window, enter the name of the tag and select "String" as the type.

2- Double click on the "Trend Control Object" to open the properties window.

Click on the "Axes" button.

Then the "Cursor" button in the new window.

Enter the tag name in the "Value Output" field.

3- On the graphic page, add a text object to display the date and time.

Go into the "Draw" menu, select the "Text" tool and add a text field.

Define the properties of text field, then click the "Text data link" button.

In the "Tag/Expression", enter the tag name.

Save the modifications.

Test, the date and time at the cursor position should display.
