How to auto create a large number of any button without manually copying and pasting them? (using loops?)

Hi please help me if you know thanks

What are you doing that means you want to create a crazy UI with a bunch of buttons?

Loops won't work.  You'd need scripting or to take a look at the architecture to find a better solution.

Have a look at the following discussion https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/10162 .

Create an array of buttons (1D or 2D) and resize to the desired number of elements.

(it is not sufficient to create buttons using scripting, you also need to connect them to the code logic. Using arrays will greatly simplify the code and make it scalable.)

If you need a video tutorial to learn how to create an array of boolean controls, I strongly recommend you to take the online training Core 1:
