We are super new to Python and Ignition as a whole and we were wondering if there is a way to change the color/visibility of a text box or circle using a MODBUD tag. When we used the tank component we just assigned the tag directly through the component but the text box and circle pulled up the scripting window. All we want to do is assign a tag to the text box/circle and then use the style customizer to set their visibility. Thank you for any help you can give!
Are you using vision or perspective?
Style customizer sounds like Vision, but that's not needed to bind a tag to visibility. Just click this icon next to the visibility property in the Vision Property Editor, and you can bind the tag directly to it:
If you don't see the property, make sure the property filter is set to "All":
If you still want to use the style customizer, you can right click on the component and add a custom property, and then bind your tag to it in the same way. The custom property will automatically show up in the driving properties selection area of the style customizer.
