String 'list selection'

Solved!
Go to solution

I am trying to work through some code a previous student made as I need to replicate some of it. In their code, in the block diagram, they have created several string constants with a numerical box to their left. Clicking the up/down arrow in this box changes the word inside the string constant. They have made several of these, some have the same 'options' available and others flip through a different list of options entirely and I cannot see any indication that it has a separate list until I click through it. How do I create these? What are they called? I am struggling to google the write words to find a tutorial or someone who has answered the question.

It is easier for us to know what it is if you attached the actual VI to your message.

 

But it sounds like you have an array of strings as a constant, and it has been sized to show only one element at a time.  You can drag the bottom border downwards to see more at once.

 

I would recommend looking at the online LabVIEW tutorials
