Combo box input in Test Stand

[ArunJ]

Can we make the dropdown list of a Combo box available in test stand module input? For Enum and Ring, I can select the input value from dropdown list but for Combo box I don't see that feature.

Hi Arun,

Is this the module input you are referring to?

If yes, the reason the Module drop down is empty is because there are no recently used module paths to display. If you have configured any step to use a certain code module, it's path will be displayed in the drop down the next time you use a step of the same adapter.

If this is not what you intended, please describe your use-case with a screenshot.

Regards,

Sahana

Sorry for not making the question clear enough..

By 'Module input' I meant the labview control.

For an Enum control, I have the dropdown list to select the value from. 

But for a combo box, I see just a text entry field, no any dropdown selection..

Hi Alan,

You must be using ComboBox in LabVIEW and want to pass value from TestStand to LabVIEW for the combobox control. TestStand is unable to provide a drop down list for the LabVIEW ComboBox control. You need to pass string value from TestStand to set the correct item in the LabVIEW ComboBox control.

If your use case is the one as specified above, please post your idea in http://forums.ni.com/t5/NI-TestStand-Idea-Exchange/idb-p/teststandideas.
