hfettig Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hi Folks, Quick question. Is it possible in an XControl to have a custom property in the property node split into sub-properties? What I mean by that is, can I create a property like X-Axis Setup that then branches into All, Title, Minimum, Maximum, etc. like e.g. the Bounds property splits into All, Left, Right, Top , Bottom? Cheers, Heiko Quote Link to comment

silmaril Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 The wiki at least shows a way to have properties show up in sub menues. That's quite nice, but it's still not all the way to what NI can do. Until now, I didn't manage to create a cluster property that can be used as the complete cluster as well as it's elements. If you don't know what I mean, have a look at the position or bounds properties of any control. Quote Link to comment

I will try the rest as soon as I find the time. Thanks for the pointer to your tool. I didn't try it until now, but looking at the documentation, it seems I should have done so some months ago. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
