Hi all,
I made a custom block that I’d like to allow the user to select item
type
of. I started following in the footsteps of the copy block, but instead
of
having the drop down menu update the blocks ports to reflect a type
change,
it lists the selected type as text on the face of the block, and does
not
update the ports at all. The block comes in by default with complex port
types, and selecting any other type does not change this. If I connect a
byte wire to the block it will cause an error, even if I select byte.
So then I looked at the agc block to see if I could find a difference.
Here
it looks like the type selection was implemented by making different
source
code for each type.
I’d like to implement it the way the copy block does, but I don’t know
what’s wrong. Is there something else I should know about doing this
that
I’m overlooking?
Thanks,
Rich
