Can I make an awkwardly sized while loop

Solved!
Go to solution

So I ended up writing my code looking like this (see screenshot attached) and I want to add the upper right part into the while loop on the left.

 

Is there a way to just make an awkwardly shaped while loop (which in this case would look like a lowercase R)?

 

Thanks

No and if NI implemented as much they would probably have to file for a new patent since the old one mentions its shape (I think).

Put the stuff at the top into a subVI.  Much easier than funny shaped loops (which cannot be done, so far as I know).  LV may be visual, but topology has not yet been applied to diagram structures.
