Hello Folks,

i need your help for a new Flow. I want to show a Heating buffer with its temperature state. I found the [most solution in this thread](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/heating-buffer-dynamize/81545#!) . Now i want to display the values of the four temparature sensors i have. I can add text in the svg box:  
` <text x="10" y="50" font-family="Verdana" font-size="15" fill="black">{msg.payload}</text>`

But what syntax do i need to see the values of the sensors?

Thanks in advice, Markus

@markush,

I think [this](https://github.com/bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-ui-svg/blob/master/docs/msg_control.md#set-text-content-via-msg) example flow on my readme page should get you started.

Good luck!  
Bart
