Ring control

[PReitano]

I have created a ring control that contain 4 string values. I then save the selected value in a configuration file using its property node "RingText.text" with the "write key" vi. This allows me to view the actual string instead of the numeric value I select. However, how can a read the value back in to the control?

To set a ring control based on the text value, create a property node for the ring and select the Strings[] property. Wire this to a Search 1D Array and wire the read string to the element input. The output of the function would be wired to a local variable of the ring.
