file paths too long for indicator

Solved!
Go to solution

I am simply creating a file dialog selector in which I select lots of files from different directories and then eventually hit an analyze files button.  The problem that doesnt have an apparent solution is my file paths are long and after I select them with the express VI, I then accumulate them into an array of paths that are viewable.  This array of paths indicator is too small in width sometimes and I dont see a way to easily wrap and autosize the indicator so the user can see the entire path.  Is there a known way to solve this anybody?

Without too much thought into it, perhaps as you fill in the array (of paths) you could write to the indicators tip strip property?

Thanks.  My path indicator wasnt setup for clipping as yours is which is what I was looking for.
