Display Last Value Mab Object with no Unit

Votes:

0

I want to display last value of a particular sensor only, no other formatting (other than text), and no units. I've managed to create a custom map object with no other formatting, only the last value, however I can't get rid of the unit. The unit has no relevance to what I'm trying to display (no. of users consuming a particular service).

How can I remove the unit from the map object display?

Hi,
you could remove the unit in the sensor channel settings of the sensor. This should remove the same in the map as well.
Best regards

Hi Konstantin, Thanks for the reply. I've tried doing this, if I remove the unit from the Channel settings, it just applies the one set in the settings, i.e this doesn't work.

I managed to work around the issue by writing a custom map-object, using Javascript to format the lastvalue.
