display array on screen

[DSRTM]

I'd like to display a table of values on the screen for the user to evaluate the results from a test.  I currently have this data being dumped into an appended string box, which is to be honest.....ugly.

What's a good way to present this table to the user, so the columns all line up, and it's easier to read?  I've tried to get this string back to an array and display it in a table, but i'm having trouble......here's my trial code (just to shake out the bugs before putting it into the instrument driver controls....

thanks

please post the real vi, not a jpg.

And have it have values inside. You can do that by making the actual values default. in the edit menu.

Will do.  I just switched computers and am not at the labview machine right now.  Looks like my original post is all messed up (the screen captures are gone, replaced by a USPost oddity?)??

Will be back on Monday.

thanks

A dumb question: Have you tried using the table indicator? It accepts a 2D array of strings. You data array is 2D, so you can just feed that into the Fract/Exp to String function to get a 2D array of strings.

 How did you post your images?

You need to use the icon with the picture of a tree on it.

You can just copy and paste images into the editor because there is no way for that image to be properly uploaded to the website so everyone can see.

I'm familiar with posting photos.  I thought the cut and paste method was working.  I was incorrect. 

Here is the vi.

thanks

Haven't tried the table indicator.  I'll have a look for it.  I'm not too familiar with options available.

Thanks for looking at this for me.  Can you save the vi into a version 8.5 format?  My 2011 machine isn't working right now, so I'm using our old version for now.
