Problem with mapping RealType and TextType to Display.Text

I've been able to get text on the display with either
    a) mapping a RealType to Display.Text
or  b) mapping a TextType to Display.Text

but if I map both, the RealType is not displayed.

Is that behaviour expected?  What is the official solution?

See the attached program to demonstrate this.

thanks,

Andrew.
