Running log on front panel

[Mark_Yedinak]

I generally use tables for these types of things. I create a set of polymorphic VIs that handle the various table updates including resizing and allow tables cells to be colored based on the cells contents. In addition, I have VIs that will allow you to increment/decrement numeric data in the cells. I need to package these up so I can post them.

Mark...

You like the complicated code...  I guess that's why you're a CLA.  😉

Logging for me was more writing everything to a text file to find out what went wrong when things go wrong..  🙂

I generally think in terms of reuse. Many of my architectures may appear to be overkill at first but overtime they become stable building blocks for future applications. Also, in the case of the screen logging I first implemented this on it was a long term test that would run for days. We need to get a quick snapshot of what was happening with sufficient detail as well as some level of a history. The complete data was logged to file as well.
