stream display

Hi,

How could I make to display a continuous stream of data in an indicator? For
example, a serial text stream from RS232 to the screen (like a old console)

Thank

If your code is operating in a loop, use a shift register to store the
string to be displayed. Concatenate the strings read from the serial
port to the shift register output and wire the output of the
concatenate function to the shift register input and also to the string
indicator used for display. If you want the text to scroll as more is
appended, use the string indicator attribute node to set the scroll
position

If the data to be displayed is of few kBs you can use thi
s method.create
two local variables with same name for the string indicator.
concatenate one local variable with the data output( current string
output data).connect other local variable to the output of the
concatenate.It will work.
