locking a dial on a control panel

Hello all,

I have created a dial on a control panel.
I notice that I can use the mouse and change the limits on the
range of the dial.

Is there a way for me to lock this so no one else can change it?

thanks,

Richard

Richard

you can right click on dial and select scale->style and then click the blank
setting. You can then either put text labels or string indicator around
your dial to show the dial range.

Set the "Scale Info.Editable" attribute node to FALSE.

You can use the dials attribute node and set it to "Scale
Info.Editable"; when set to false the user cannot change the scale on
the dial.
