Hi!

I would like to know if it is possible to make an auto-update of the Today() function every time I open the project file.



Every time I open it, I have to recalculate it by hand, and I would like to have it automatically recalculated. The reason is that I link this value to a text box in the plots, which get automatically updated.



Thanks in advance!

Why not using a text label $(today(), Ddd'.'MM'.'yyyy) ?
