NI Teststand Steps customizing

Hi, I hope you all are doing good.

Can we add regions in sequence steps window like we do in Visual Studio, so that we can collapse/expand the steps in that region. Currently, we do have 3 of those, setup,main,cleanup. What if we want more. Thanks

2 things:

 

Thing 1- this has been requested in different ways by different people:

As of 2016 this does not exist.  Sorry.

 

Thing 2- If your code requires this then it may be time to consider writing modular code or pushing more of the algorithmic code into a code module.  Not sure if you write LabVIEW but in my mind this is akin to the idea that you should pretty much be able to fit your VI onto one screen.  In my opinion you shouldn't have to scroll very much for each sequence.

 

Cheers,
