Array of Tree Control

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

 

I have a tree control which I am using to display a test sequence.   I would like to put the tree controls in an array to display multiple (different) sequences.  I am having problems populating the controls.  When I get the reference, it populates all the controls in the array, rather than just one element.  

 

Is there a way to populate just a single element in the array?

 

Thanks
John

The only thing that can be different in an array is the value of the elements. All elements will share the same properties. In the case of a tree control the value is the item that's selected. The actual items is a property and hence every element would display the same items. If you need to have multiple tree controls then you would need to use a cluster, or just have multiple tree controls.

Okay, thanks.  So would an array of cluster of tree control work?  

 

I would like it to be dynamic as the number of sequences depends on the test being run.

 

BTW, it is LabVIEW 8.6

No, that won't work either. Encapsulating the tree control into a cluster in order to put it into an array will still leave you with the limitation that the properties (i.e., tree items) will be the same for each element.

Thanks, I see now.  I have to think of another method.
