Thanks jcarmody and Yamaeda for your suggestions
Before working on your idea about using Paython I would like to show you one example and if you think the toolbox can handle that I will continue
This is one of the m files ( matlab ) provided by them:
As you can see below they can call functions , use basic math functions and use basic commands such as if , for , while?
They would like to have an environment like this but when for example they call a function I don't want to run a Matlab or Paython code. I want to run a SubVI which is specified for that command and then we goto to the second line and continue. SO everything should be implemented in LabVIEW but I want to give them this capability to write scripts (since they don't know LabVIEW) but everything should be execute in LabVIEW. Can the Paython toolbox give me this capability?
If not do you have any suggestion
