Displaying variable names in a Container
Quote from Gaev on September 17, 2020, 3:00 amI do not have a solution, but I am posting here so any tips posted here will be of use to others.
I need to display names (NOT values) of variables within the HTML for a Container object (could be Push Buttons or other object) e.g. something like ...
The results will be displayed in variables [abcd] and [xyz]
... I want this exact text to be displayed at run time ... not the current value of variable [abcd].
I tried several work arounds ... escape characters/tags, enclosing the text in code and /code tags etc. ... but it always displays the current value of the variable ... any ideas/tips ?

Quote from luishp on September 17, 2020, 10:27 am@gaev just assign the ng-non-bindable CSS class to the Container (advanced properties).
This is a special predefined AngularJS CSS class to avoid showing variable values.

<span ng-non-bindable>[test]</span>When displayed in the browser it looks like this:
[test]
Angular won’t process anything within the span, so variables will be ignored.
