Do not simply createDisplay form Arma 3's debug console, as it will crash the game. Instead use spawn scope: [] spawn {findDisplay 46 createDisplay "RscObserver"};

Arma3 v1.34

When using CreateDisplay instead of CreateDialog, all the commands for working with the controls of the display only work with the control version, not the IDC version.

EXAMPLE: LbAdd [1234, "item"]; // does not work on displays, and won't error either _ctrl LbAdd "item"; // does work with displays
So you have to use the control(DisplayCtrl) and not the IDC.
