Can HSTouch work with global variable values

[MPodlin]

Can HSTouch work with the HS.CreateVar, HS.SaveVar and HS.GetVar to display or change values in global variables? If yes, how would you configure a text item in HSTouch to display the value of a variable?

As long as it is saved to a device code it will.

So what you are saying is the answer is "NO", it will only work with devices, not user defined global variables.

What I am saying is I do not know using what I think you are suggesting, but, I do know it will work if your variable is saved to a virtual device.

I know, not a lot of help for what you are trying to achieve.

Since a text element can have a script assigned to it in the text field, you should be able to enter the following in the text field of a text element;
[$SCRIPT=&hs.GetVar("MyVar")]

Where MyVar is a variable you have created elsewhere via a script. I have not tried this yet, but there is no reason why it would not work....
