                <visual name="text">
                    <parameters>
                        <left>0</left>
                        <top>10</top>

                        <background>clskyblue</background>
                        <size>10</size>
                    </parameters>
                    <content>
                        <text>Random Number: </text>
                        <sensor name="test.random numbers" update="1">
                            <parameters>
                                <range>100</range>
                            </parameters>
                        </sensor>
                    </content>
                </visual>
            </content>
        </form>
    </display>
</cml>

YOU MUST HAVE THE "TEST" PLUGIN AND THE "TEXT" PLUGIN INSTALLED TO RUN THE ABOVE EXAMPLE

Place a sensor as a parameter:

<parameters>
    ...
    <left><sensor name="test.random numbers" update="1" dedicated="yes"></left>
    ...
</parameters>

The use of the dedicated parameter is recommended when using a sensor as a parameter or when showing something time critical for instance CPU usage.
