Hi,

 

I have a number of mbbo records which have 16 possible values. Each value is named with a string. I would like to be able to enable or disable each bit of the mbbo. I have seen in the examples that the “slide button” widget is most appropriate for this. I would like the label of the slide widget to be the name from the field of the record.

 

I show one of the records below. I would like to take the enumerated values as use them as labels of the widget. This seems to be possible with a “radio button” but not with “slide button”. Is there a macro I can use like “$(pv_name)”? What’s the best way to achieve what I am aiming for?

 

Best,

 

Will
