> Hi All,
> I have a device with MODE LEDs. When they are constantly lit, it means one
> thing, when they are not lit, it means something else, and when they blink,
> it means another thing.
> I have a graphic where I can show constant color, and obviously I can show
> non-lit LEDs pretty easily. But, how can I show a representation of a
> blinking LED? This is a print document, so animation will not work.
