How to add new string control to the Full Feature Labview Teststand user interface

[AndrazS]

I'm using Teststand Full Featured Labview interface 2019.

I want to customize the front panel, so that after login, user can enter text to string control on the front panel.

How can I do that?

You can use the Prompt User for Input Express VI: https://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361R-01/lvexpress/prompt_user_for_input/

This shows you a standard dialog box and provides some customization options, such as user input in the form of a string, number, or Boolean value. However, with this Express VI, the dialog box cannot display indicator values, and you cannot change the location of controls in the dialog box.

If you need a more customizable solution, please refer to the following document to create your own dialog box: Creating Quality Dialog Boxes in LabVIEW
