Copy of counter?

[Per Olsen]

Hello.

I have a few counters placed outside view of the normal window when the trains are running.  I would like a copy of these counters inside the window, so I can watch them (for test purposes).  Can this be done?  I may overlook something..

Regards,
Per.

Is it not possible?  Anybody knows?

Hi Per,

Two possibilities. You could define the region where the counters are placed as Multiplan and open this multiplan as additional window in the main program.

Second possibility is to draw additional counters within the visible region and then synchronize to the original ones via dispatcher with the conditions for counter compare and action counter value transfer.

Regards
Markus

Hello Markus!

Thank you.  I will try that second option.  I do already use the dispatcher a lot for other purposes, it is a fantastic tool!

Best regards,
Per.

PS:  It seems to be quite low activity in this english forum, compared to the german.  Many people read the posts, but not so many write new posts, or answer others posts.  Hope more users will contribute

Hello again.

I am sorry, but can you show me an example of how to do it?  I tried several options, but the new counter is not updated to the value of the old.  Can you show me the correct dispatcher setup to make one counter become equal to another?  Sorry…

Bets regards,
Per.

UPDATE:  Never mind, I found it myself.  thanks anyway!  Best regards, Per.
