LabVIEW NXG Polymorphic & Malleable VI's?

How can I create a polymorphic or malleable giv in LabVIEW NXG?

 

The only information I can find is: https://forums.ni.com/t5/NI-Blog/Designing-LabVIEW-NXG-Configurable-Functions/ba-p/3855200?profile.l...

But it does not tell or share how to do this in LabVIEW NXG? Where can I find this information? Or am I just missing something?

Overloads is what you are looking for.

Yes, I saw that page as well. But this also does not explain how to actually do this...

I think I "accidentally" found it in the manual once.  I have no idea how I got there, though, and I don't have NXG at work.

Have you tried looking at the examples, yet?  (Sorry, I'm at work again.)

The overload group feature needs to be manually enabled in NXG's Preferences under Preview features. Once enabled, individual GVIs can be grouped together with an overload group name in the Document pane. More info can be found in the manual: https://www.ni.com/documentation/en/labview/latest/g-prog/creating-an-overload-group/
