NI TestStand Idea Exchange

Post an idea

Forgive me for the cavalcade of suggestions this week...

One of my favorite options in the LabVIEW development environment is the "Find all Instances" context menu option, whereby one is able to locate all calls to the particular SubVI.

I have long wished that something similar were available in the TestStand Sequence Editor. I'd like to propose a "Find All Sequence Calls" context menu selection when right-clicking on a sequence in the Sequence pane. This could leverage the Find tool, but save the user from copying and pasting the name of the sequence. (And save the user from configuring the search options to narrow down the results) It'd be nice to be able to define the scope of the "find" operation to either the selected sequence or all sequences in memory, but I'd settle for a simple search of the open sequence.

Cheers,

Mr. Jim

In our Company also hardware developer creates testsequences in teststand, so it would be nice, if there could be a small user interface to configure the values of the parameters for a subsequence.
The solution could be, if they drag and drop a sequence into their main testsequence, a user interface pops up to configure the parameters for this subsequence. So it would be possible to restrict the values with a drop down menu or Radio Buttons or to give some graphical help to choose the right values.

Or maybe i could create something similar to the IVI sequences, where i can click on a button and a small editor window is opened.
