Thank you for elaborating on this with relation to integers so that they will always try to wire the type input.

Then where's my Kudos?

Hello,

When I want to create a constant to that input (right click, create) an empty square appears and then I could not find any way to put a value in there !

I read accross the help file and didn't find any explanation how to do this either !

Thanks for your help.

Hello pgo,

You probably read over a part of my post consisting out of 2 parts:

1)  "create a new true constant from the function palette ..." (this is not right click create)
2) "... and wire it to your type input (so that you are not depending  on any autoresolving things)?"

[ThiCop]

And the same can be done for a numeric constant.
Just grab/take it from your Function Palette.

The function palette can be accessed as shown in attachment.
And if you don't find it, then use
either the search bar of the Function palette (search for "numeric constant" or "true constant")

or the Quick search (CTRL+spacebar)

Ok, Sorry.

I just did it but get the same error: incompatible data

This seems to work.

Thanks for your help

How do we trigger that Kudo thing? 😉

Best regards.
