Now Press ctrl+F3 (Properties Frame) and set the variable name as display (You are free to use any word or text for the variable name), make sure this text box is a dynamic textbox( refer the image below ). Chose the font color (other than black if your background color is black) and then change the color, and font size as you desire.
