But why would anyone ever want to do something silly like that?

Did you see what Aristos Queue used it for that one time? But yea you do have to streach pretty far to find a good use for something like that.

OK  Curiosity is getting the best of me..  I'm gonna go read AQ's post..

 

I'm back...  That was not reason enough 😄

 

And I quote (myself):

"Well... what if the Stacked Sequence Structure was replaced with a Flat Sequence?

That would have saved you one step.  And Flat Sequences are not as nasty as their stacked cousin..."

Yes that is a rare use for the feature. I kudoed the idea. The only real reason to keep it would be for the novelty.

I thought this was another Globals are... Thanks for clarifying!

 

Yup a useless feature!  My next favorite useless feature is "Tools>Advanced>Create or edit express vi>New"

The only case structure that would translate into a Stacked Sequence would be one that is indexed fromletys say 0 to n.  But why would anyone ever want to do something silly like that?  It's like taking a round wheel and making it square..!!!

Guess what my inherited code looked like. Although, it was only ever supposed to perform 1 case at a time to have time to perform other tasks as to emulate some multitasking ... apparantly LV have that so you'll have to poll alot in sequence ...
