To restore a Teststand perspective to its original layout.

Hi!

 

I was working on a project which required LabVIEW 2011 and TestStand 2010. The software had lots of LV modules already created. I reused some of them. However, I needed to trim whitespaces in TestStand which were coming from the string outputs of these LV modules. Nevertheless, I was surprised to discover that there is no TRIM string function in TestStand at all. I had to create a simple VI which just trimmed the whitespaces. I couldn't modify the previously created modules because they were used elsewhere and could affect the outcome of the other test systems. Why does TestStand lack this simple functionality?

How about a Mac version of TestStand? I understand there is a Mac version of LabView.

The idea here is to have a widow that you can execute expressions while at a breakpoint or paused.   I would also like to be able to execute the expression while not running the sequence.  Many times I am not sure how will be returned by an API expression and it would be nice just to execute it.  I know that not all expressions can be executed outside running the sequence, but many can.  This would be a nice feature so you can test expressions without running the whole sequence.
