group count

[Leillo]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a function to calculate the amount of Groups? I know there is one to calculate the amount of channels: ChnNoMax but I can't find one to calculate the amount of groups

Basically what I want to do is to erase all the groups in the data portal to start with an empty data portal. For this, the only function I know is: "Data.Root.ChannelGroups.Remove(groupnumber)" and I want to use it in a For loop but for this I need to know the last value of the For Loop which is the number of groups...

Thanks

Hi Leillo,

To count the number of channel groups use

Data.Root.ChannelGroups.Count

Please play a bit with the Data-API we implemented in DIAdem. It contains all data you see in the Dataportal. You can also have a look at the DIAdem script example. Most of them use it.

Please use

data.Root.Clear

 to start with an empty portal and do not loop over all groups.

Even better, thank you
