Hi all,
I have been searching far and wide but there seems to be no answer to what I thought was a simple question.
I have a front panel with a String Constant, an Array and a Waveform chart.
I have a sub VI which I want to update all three of these controls via references.
They are all in a while loop where the array and waveform gains a new random value each loop and is appended.
I want the String to simply have the numbers there as well as it will later become a "log file"
I have successfully made it so that the waveform chart and the array update with the correct values via the reference method. I understand how it works and i can recreate it easily enough.
However, I am at a loss to how I can update the string control. using the same method, it doesn't become a "strict" reference and so when I try to write a Value to it using property nodes, nothing happens.
I don't understand how I can have an array constantly updating with a new number but I can't have a string update as well
Is there something simple that i'm missing or can you simply not update a string control via a SubVI?
Cheers
(I'll try upload a copy of the code later but its very basic at the moment due to being a proof of concept)
