parameter_system.jpg

In large application there are huge amount of parameters. If there is a lot of parameters usually there is also lot of parameter handling code in block diagram. This code can be moved to away if there is ready mayde parameter handling system. Here are my basic needs\ideas to this kind of system: 

 

- Parameter values are read from e.g. CSV-file when there is a first call 

- Parameter value must be changeable during code execution

- When value is changed new value must be updated to e.g. CSV-file

- User can change parameter name from project view. The new name is updated to all block diagrams (compare to shared variables)

- New parameters can be created from project view

- All parameter values can be changed and read from block diagram by using proper VIs

- Parameter library settings e.g CSV-file format and name can be set in project view

 

Is there any one else who needs this kind of system?

Make a new menu item available in the structures contextual menu (like the auto-grow) to enable automatic wiring off wires that go through the structure in other cases, events or sequences.

Why did National change the way pasting objects on either the front panel or block diagram?

In 8.2 the paste (Ctrl-V) would paste the clipboard where the cursor was last clicked. 

In 8.6 (or possibly 8.6.1) it always pastes it in the center of the panel or diagram and is floating.

This is very annoying.
