Customizable Digital Panel Meter

Archie:
Version 3.99y Beta 16 has a modified SevenSegment2 that allows you to add a frame and text. This allows you to make a custom digital panel meter.

- Save the attached file DigitalPanelMeterR1.png
- Using 3.99y Beta 16 or higher, open the MainForm
- Add a SevenSegment2 to the form
- Set Size to 400,178
- Set TextCenterLocation to 200, 30
- Set InsetPercent to 25
- Set BackgroundImageLayout to Stretch
- Add a BackgroundImage and browse to the downloaded file

You should end up with something as shown in the attached picture of SevenSegment2wFrame

Hello!
Is there any way to change the color of the digital panel meter segments?
From red can I change to say green?
Using version 3.99y beta35

Archie:
SevenSegment2 will by adjusting the ForeColorInLimits, etc. values

Hi guys. I can't seem to change the decimal place of my DigitalPanelMeter that I have added to my Main Form ? . . I am using one to display the operating frequency of a motor running from a VFD. It will display 46Hz for example but will not display 46.5Hz which I would like it to do. This is the same for displaying the full load output current. It only displays 12A for example but not 12.8A which the inverter screen is displaying. Which value needs to be changed in the properties box ?
