Hi,

Is there any way (script) that I can retrieve the Tag Path from the LED Display component . When We map a tag to any display component in ignition it shows the value of that tag, Tag path can only be seen in the expression of that component. Actually I want to fetch out the tag path from the component through a script. Please guide me if there is any way for that.

If you search this forum for ‘InteractionController’, you’ll see some discussions of the machinery that does property bindings in Vision. Note, manipulating any of this is utterly unsupported.

Thanks Phill. I already had a look at your previous posts on similar topic but actually I was looking for some more programmatic approach. I will try, if I succeed then I will post the full solution on this.

Thanks again!!
