Changing Function Icon Styles (Control Design and Simulation Module)

You can change the icon style of a Simulation function on the simulation diagram. Right-click a Simulation function and select Icon Style from the shortcut menu to display the following options:

• Static—Displays the Simulation function as a standard VI.
• Dynamic—Displays the Simulation function as an object that you can resize. Dynamic icons also display a preview of their contents. For example, a Sine Signal function with a dynamic icon displays a sine wave with the frequency, amplitude, and phase that you configure.
• Text Only—Displays the Simulation function as a list of parameter values.
• Express—Displays the Simulation function with a list of parameters below the icon. You can resize the parameter list to display more inputs and outputs. This icon style also shows parameter values directly on the simulation diagram.
