Status icons with name that I can change

Votes:

0

Dear support,

I need to create a status icon with a name that I can change. For example: I have one port sensor testing a firewall port. If I create to a map with status and name, this icon will show the sensor's name or device's name. But I need write a different thing, like ISP.

So, is there a way to do that? Is there a box that I can write inside or a status icon with a box that I can write inside?

Regards,

Natasha.

When adding or editing a map object, you should have a HTML option, which includes "HTML Before" and "HTML After" entry fields. You can add HTML code to display the text in case, using "HTML Before" to add the text above (/before) and "HTML After" to add the text below (/after) the object in case.

And can I change the color, face and size of this text's font?

Yes, you would have to adjust the HTML code accordingly.

Yes.

But I'm trying to change the font size and it isn't working. I'm trying to configure with these parameters: <font size=1>TEXT</font> And if I change to another number, like seven, the text continues with same size. I can't change color and style too.

Is there another HTML text overwriting what I write?

I really need to change this texts myself, and I don't wanna change the PRTG's standard. I need to change this texts to some customers.

Could you, please, help me asap?

Regards,

Natasha.

You would need to use the following format, for example:

<span style='font-size: 8em; color: rgb(10, 255, 255);'>Text</span>
