sized circle (?2cm). For this click in the editor field and draw with pressed left
mouse button the circle in its length.
• Now doubleclick the circle. The dialog box for editing visualization elements opens
• Choose the category Variables and in the field Change color enter the variable
name .L1_red or "L1_red". That means that the global variable L1_red will cause
the color change as soon as it is set to TRUE. The dot before the variable name
indicates that it is a global variable, but it is not mandatory.
• Then choose the category Color and click on the button Inside in the area Color.
Choose as neutral a color as possible, such as black.
