Indicator
Summary
This function creates an indicator asset and places it in the virtual environment at a specified position. This is useful for adding markers or notes to guide users towards specific areas or assets.
Parameters
Text
Type: Text Default: HERE
This parameter allows you to specify the label of the indicator. The label will appear as text, centered on the indicator itself.
Offset
Type: XYZ Coordinates Default: 1,0,0
This parameter allows you to specify an offset value in XYZ Coordinates for which the indicator will be placed associated with the target asset.
Facing
Type: XYZ Coordinates Default: -1,0,0
This parameter allows you to specify an offset value in XYZ Coordinates for which the indicator will be rotated associated with the target asset.
Scale
Type: Float Default: 1
This parameter allows you to specify a scale value that will allow you to enlarge or shrink the indicator based on the amount specified. Values above 1 increase the size where as values below 1 will decrease the size.
Style
Type: Text Default: Large 2D
Color
Type: RGB Default: 0,1,0
This parameter allows you to specify a color for the indicator. Color is defined as normalized RGB values (values from 0.0 to 1.0) delimited by a ',' .
For example: A value of “0.5,0,1” will create a color with 50% red, 0% green and 100% blue applied to it.

Examples
<indicator Text="Device A" Offset="10,20,-10" Scale="0.5" Colour="1,0,0" />
The above code will create an indicator labeled Device A. It will be positioned at the x,y,z co-ordinates 10,20,-10 offset from the market position. With a scale of 0.5 it will be shrunk to half the size and have a colour value of 1,0,0 which will make it appear red.
