How can i change a text on the frontpanel?

Hello,
i have a cluster which looks like the attached cluster but with more and smaller quadrants.
Now i want to add a text above each column. This can be done with a description. But now i want to load the description dynamically from somewhere (file, global) so that it must be changeable. But it seems not to be possible to change the text of a decoration.
What other possibilities are there to add a text above the cluster? I tried to to it with a text-array but there i cant make the text be shown like in the description  (counterclockwise).
Thx for any ideas.

Hi OnlyOne,
you can get acces to them using the property node, but you can´t change the value. You can use boolean controls to do it.

Make the caption visible. You can change the caption text and the vertical arrangement via property nodes.
