I have a small instrument that successfully generates all the text readouts that I require.
In this Element section,
Each line results in either of the following;
16 , 26 , 38 , 47 , 58 , 72.5 degrees.
As can be seen this is placed at Tabs=37L .
The 16 degrees reads at the correct position , but as it is cycled by the successive A:Var values the following readouts each progressively move to the right.
My guess is that each line is processing an 'if' or 'else' , and that the 'else is a blank space ,
thus the next line 'if' readout is moved over to the right of that blank space.
How do I correct that issue ?
Cheers
Karol
