The Format tab of a multi tag contains the following properties...
• The Label Text property is used to specify the label that can be shown next to
this tag when including the tag on a display page. The label differs from the tag
name, in that the former can be translated for international applications, while
the latter remains unchanged and is never shown to the user of the Gateway.
• The Item States properties are used to define up to eight values that represent
different states of the tag. Each state has an integer value associated with it, and a
text string to indicate what should be displayed when the tag holds that value. At
least two states must be defined, but the balance may be left in their default
condition if they are not needed.
• The Default property is used to define the text to be displayed if the tag holds a
value other than one of those listed in the item states.
