FCS Express allows you to insert special items, called Tokens, into a Text Box. Tokens appear as text, but are dynamically evaluated and can display information such as plot statistics, FCS file keywords, layout properties, and system information. For example, tokens can be used to display the number of pages in a layout, the percentage of events in a quadrant, and the instrument used to acquire data.

 

Once a token is placed in a Text Box, the displayed information acts like any other text and can be formatted like normal text. Simply select the token text and format it using the appropriate commands in the Text Tab, or, right-click on the selected token text and choose the Format Token option from the pop-up menu.

 

Tokens are evaluated automatically, which means that whenever the underlying information changes, the text that the token displays will change accordingly.
