Having Case sensitive property names

Hi,

 

I am trying to add a new property to a container using its PropertyObject.NewSubProperty method but it fails if I already have a property with same name in a case insensitive way.

TestStand also prevents me from adding fields manually to a container if the name only differs in Case.

Is there an option somewhere to turn this off?

I would like to have for example

Locals.Test.Signal and Locals.Test.signal

to be two different objects.

I'm pretty sure this is not possible.  Just name it something else like zSignal and aSignal or something like that.

Hi

 

thanks for pointing out!

I just reproduced on TS5.1's SequenceEditor. I got a Message that the name is already in use

Still learning every day here....

If someone would asked me before, i would have been said that is possible.

 

So just follow jigg's proposal
