Read Key (Multiple Lines) Help

Hello! Is it possible to read multiple lines using read key VI? I'm only reading the first line right now but it would be nice if I can view the first line's explanations too.

Please see attach. Thanks in advance.

Get inside the Read Key.vi. There you will find Get Key.vi. Get inside this vi. It has two outputs (excluding some others) - value and comment. But the vi itself returns only the value and the comment is left unused. Please check if that "comment" output is the "explanations" you need. If so, you could manually wire that output for your benefit. 

 

Remember to save the vi with a different name if you will edit it.

While evaluating my code please have in mind that I am a LV novice. Therefore sometimes my code might violate some coding rules that I have to learn about myself. But how else could I do that... 🙂

You're welcome. But don't hurry too much, first check if that helps, because I can't guarantee that. I only provide an idea 🙂
