Message popup when sequence loaded

Solved!

Total newbie to TestStand, first post Smiley Frustrated

 

I've noticed that the act of opening some of the TestStand example sequences will cause a popup message to display describing what the example is about. I'm trying to figure out where that message originates. It is not in the sequence steps.

 

Thanks!

Welcome to the message boards, Jim,

 

It will show up in a callback.  When you have the example sequence open, you will notice that there are some sequences in the sequence pane that are a different color (sort of purple).  You add that callback to your sequence, and edit it similarly to the way the example was edited.

Here's a great document on callbacks and how to use them as GSinMN pointed out.  There are different types of callbacks in TestStand.  The purplish ones are Engine Callbacks.
