The GUI Expression Builder
The GUI Expression Builder is a feature of the Wave and List Signal Search
dialog boxes, and the List trigger properties dialog box. It aids in building a search
expression that follows the "GUI_expression_format" (p236).
To locate the Builder:
• select
Edit > Search
in either the List or Wave window
• select the
Search for Expression
option in the resulting dialog box
• select the
Expression Builder
button
The Expression Builder dialog box provides an array of buttons that help you
build a GUI expression . For instance, rather than typing in a signal name, you can
select the signal in the associated Wave or List window and press Add
Selected_Signal_Name in the Expression Builder. The result will be the full signal
name added to the expression field. All Expression Builder buttons correspond to
the "Expression syntax" (p237).
