TKDS30XX O'Scope Labview slider control

[Brian]

I am wondering how some of the O'Scope controls were emulated. For example:
In the
tkds30xx Configure Chan Characteristics.vi there is a control that takes
a vertical slide and
that has text labels active and is able to output a specific double value
of either (50.0 or
1000000.0). The values do not follow the conventional 'Enumerated' type
definitions that are
defined in both the G Programming Labview documentation and vertical slider
controls in the
software itself. Basically you can not get there from here!

This knowledge would be extremely helpful to me in order to produce similiar
vertical slider
outputs that do not need to be incorporated in a case to get specific double
output results.

Thank you in adv
ance.

Brian,

these controls might be doubles/singles with range checking enabled,
e.g:

min value= 50.0
max value=1000000.0
step size= 999950.0
coerce values

Johannes,

Thank you for the info but I think this is a custom slider control. Doing
what you specify will
be reset once you swich the slider to incorporate Text Labels. By doing
that you in effect make your values enumerated starting from 0 on upward.
The slider control I have referred to has somewhat been converted to actually
output the value of either 50.0 or 1000000.0 with the slider utilizing the
Text Labels feature.
