Customize ring picture constant

[Damian]

Does anybody know how to create ring picture constant but with my pictures (defined by me) ??

As you may have suspected by the lack of any answers (especially positive answers), I don't believe you can do this. In the case of text rings, you can create a front panel control with the text you want and drag it from there onto the block diagram and get a constant that shows the text strings but this doesn't work with the pict ring. Not even if it is strictly type def'd. You could add this to the wish-list forum but I don't suspect it'll happen anytime soon.

If you really want pictures on your block diagram you could always drop a case structure onto the diagram, drop individual pictures into different cases and wire it up to an ENUM (or Text-ring) constant that provided the real control for both whatever needed the constant and the case structure. Unfortunately, changing the ENUM constant wouldn't cause a change of the displayed case while in edit mode - that would have to be done manually or with execution highlighting on. Clunky at best.

You can also make picture control constants on the block diagram:

set picture topic Load your picture into a picture cotrol then popup and make a constant. This has the advantage that you can then use the picture somewhere.

yeah,

First thanks for answers. I suspected that this woludn't be possible. I think making const picture on diagram and putting into array will be the best solution.

Till next post.
