Possible to customize the type NI_LimitMeasurement?

[Skeptical]

Is it possible to customize the NI_LimitMeasurement type?

I would like to have a unique measurement ID and measurement name field. For that matter, I would like an ID properter or field for all measurements or test steps. This ID is used to correlate a measurement or test with the testing requirements documentation for a given part to be tested.

What I would recomend is that you make your own NumericLimitTest. Click on the Types button and select MyTypes.in (or whatever ini file you have for custom steps. Insert a new step type and then select Combine With Step Type>Tests>Numeric Limit Test. On this new step, you can then add new fields to the result container or any other place you want. Name the step to something like 'Custom_NumericLimitTest'.

Hi Dennis,

and how to extend this settings table with a new variable? I could't figure it out, even if I create my own custom step type derived from the NumericLimitsTest

I believe that tab is defined by a DLL.
