I've been trying this today but it's a bit of a struggle, perhaps you could help:

- Is there a manual related to this environment that gives us a breakdown of interacting with widgets? I'm used to things like object.SetColor(); or object.value = newValue; That type of thing? At the moment it's hard to see what is, and is not, possible and I'm scooting around PDF after PDF and example after example trying to work this out with little success to be honest.
- Is it possible to change an widget object name in Workshop4 IDE? For example, I don't want something named iStaticText1 and iStaticText2 through my code, I want Temperature and Rating as names. In the editor, Object Inspector, the Name property is not editable. Is there some way of using the Alias property in code?
- I was going to use a CoolGauge to display a voltage meter: 0 to 16V to 3 dp (millivolts). That generates 16000 images! Are there any tips for making this type of thing more efficient?
- I wanted to use some text (a label) to display a dynamic value from 1 to 100. I'd normally do something in the code like aLabel.value = "046" (at least, in every graphical programming environment I've used since 1996.) I can't find how to do this from what I've found in examples or PDFs so far: could you give me some pointers?
