If you are talking about an ordered list of items (such as a EICAS list of "warnings," or similar, the solution is to use <FormattedText> in a <String>Here's an example of a "scrolling EICAS Message list." This list will only appear if there is a "warning condition" detected, and each "message" will appear in the list in order from the top down. It even features several choices of color for each condition... 8-)It makes extensive use of @Macros to keep the "code" compact and readable:

Ahh!! Yes, It could be done that way. I'll give it a tryThanks

Here is the meat of the technique... Consider the following which 'prints' one line of the list:%(@PitotHeat)%{if}PITOT OFF\n%{end}Note that every line begins with the % character. This is a flag saying "evaluate what follows this flag."Note that the \n (carriage return or new line) is bundled with the "true" condition of the if{ } structure. This way, if the condition is "false" no carriage return/new line occurs...Lastly, the %{end} closes out the initial % (evaluate) sequence. :(
