Number of cases allowed in an Event structure

Hello!

 

I would like to ask if somebody knows if there is any limitation in the number of event cases that can be used in an event structure and in the number of cases can be used in a case structure.

 

Thank you in advance

There probably is a limit, but I think that editing would become quite hard long before you reach that limit, as even with a few dozen frames, these structures can become very difficult to navigate.

I once tested with a case structure. There was a limit where I did crash LV. But that number was so high, you wouldn't want to search for a specific case....

Couldn't find the post I did this, I think the topic was about how many frames a sequence structure could bear. I think Yair (tst) to post an example of 10k frames (do you remember?).

I remember and that indeed was the number in that example (it was on LAVA, in case you really want to look for it).

cases can be driven from enum which are limited to U32 so about 4 Gig of cases possible... if you had enough memory to store the 4 Gig versions of he code.

My bet is, that you get a crash from the OS when you try to select the 'combo-box' and the size of the drop-down menu exeeds the 2^32 limit. Don't tell me that anyone is targeting a monitor with 2^16 resolution even. Smiley Very Happy
