Improved Menu Ring Control (add hierarchical selections)

[vitoi]

I currently use a Menu Ring control to select which waveforms are displayed on some graphs. When there were about 30 different signals to display, selection was easy. However, I'm now up to over 60 signals to select from (and growing!). This makes the pop-up menu longer than the screen so scrolling is required and with so many items displayed, it’s difficult to find the required selection. It would be nice if the Menu Ring control could be hierarchical so that similar item can be grouped. That is, same principle as for typical application menus.

I agree, this would be very helpful. I would like to have a run-time reference to the pop-up menu for use with the normal labview menu api. Maybe it should be a new control with string datatype instead of the numeric ring though.

Same problem, too many attributes to display nicely in a ring control. Hope hierarchies are added.

And for enums also.
