Currently we have glyphs to indicate tag configurations such as alarming. It would be nice to have a glyph to indicate that a tag is configured with scaling.

Hmm, I like it. But it might be slightly too large. Maybe…

In transaction groups, we use a little “f(x)” badge to indicate this. Perhaps we could do something similar for tags. Or maybe some sort of balance, like Robert suggested. There are two things that I’ve seen throw people off: not knowing that scaling was set, and not knowing that a deadband was set. I don’t think we can really do much for the deadband, but a badge for scaling would probably be a good idea.
