LatestValues displays are easy to make, and they start out with sensible defaults for colors, styles, and such.
That said, you can use the LatestValues Editor to add a huge variety of features, details, and nuance as you see fit.

Name section

The Name section is the top few lines of the display editor panel.

It is used to Name, Copy, Save and Delete your Displays. Read more about the display editor name section.

Tabs section

The middle part of the editor panel holds tabs with content and formatting options.

These tabs have a natural progression to them, moving from left to right. That is, you typically select your Data, then stylistic Settings, and so forth. That being said, you can always move freely between tabs.


Use the Preview tab to see exactly how your Widget looks at any point.
