Passing a Parameter or other info into a pop-up label

In the indirect tag binding, use:

{1}/Parameters/desc

And in the References:

Reference Property
1 {view.params.deviceTagPath}

Where view.params.deviceTagPath is passed in as:
"[OTSE_MFG]Reel/Primary Area/_71_5048_SM611_FS1_SpoolReleaseLocked"

In your previous posts, by trying to bind to the tag with path "[OTSE_MFG]Reel/Primary Area/_71_5048_SM611_FS1_SpoolReleaseLocked/parameters", this isn't a valid tag path as you're missing the item you're trying to read.

Note: you can also use the tag path:

{1}/Parameters.desc

Although I prefer to keep the "/" instead of the "." for the rare instances where I choose not to use a udt instance for some types, but still use the same UDT definition's folder structure. Likely nothing important for you to worry about
