How can I specify simple math like in a Formula Node but on the front panel?

If the Formula node had a "text" property, that would work for me, because I could limit my inputs and outputs to N floating-point numbers.

LabVIEW once had such a thing but it was in an add-on math library, and I don't remember what it was called.

Look in the Mathematics >> Scripts & Formulas >> Formula Parsing palette.

Thanks; that led me directly to what I was looking for. A combination of "Parse Formula String.vi" and "Eval Parsed Formula String.vi" works perfectly for me!
