How to update label on an animated plot without it overlaying

[wiseac]

Hello,
I'm currently trying to add a label that updates with an animated plot/ plot that is always updating via a circular buffer. The overlay looks something like this picture. I want the newest temperature reading to be updated in the label (which it does but just overlays).

My main code is in a "while" loop for pushing the updated temperatures but my label code looks like this..
Label(fig[1, 1], "Temperature (°C) " * string(t[][500]), halign=:right, textsize=18, padding=(5, 5, 5, 5), tellheight= false, tellwidth = false, valign = :top)

t[][500] is just defining the latest value in my circular buffer.

I saw the @lift function in the animated documentation but im not sure how to use it or if it is even applicable.

Thanks,
W

You can directly set the label's text in your animation, assuming lab::Label:

lab.text[] = "Temperature (°C) " * string(t[][500])

this should "just work".

Hello,
So my code now looks like,
lab = Label(fig[1, 1], halign=:right, textsize=18, padding=(5, 5, 5, 5), tellheight= false, tellwidth = false, valign = :top) lab.text[] = "Temperature (°C) " * string(t[][500])

but it still causes that overlay, should i assign the label outside of the "while" loop?

I just did that and it Worked!

Thank you very much!
