Use this dialog to configure settings for the MathScript engine.

This dialog box includes the following components:

• Format—Sets the default display format of numbers in the LabVIEW MathScript Window. This list contains the following options:
  • short—Displays 5 digits in scaled fixed-point format. For example, 100*pi in short format returns 314.15927.
  • long—Displays 15 digits in scaled fixed-point format. For example, 100*pi in long format returns 314.159265358979326.
  • short e—Displays 5 digits in floating-point format. For example, 100*pi in short e format returns 3.14159E+2.
  • long e—Displays 15 digits in floating-point format. For example, 100*pi in long e format returns 3.141592653589793E+2.

  Use the MathScript format function to modify the display format of numbers for the current instance of the LabVIEW MathScript Window. LabVIEW resets the display format to the default when you restart LabVIEW.

• Path—Sets the default search path list. LabVIEW searches the path list from top to bottom to find functions or scripts that you defined and want to execute in the LabVIEW MathScript Window. Use the MathScript path function to modify the search path list for the current instance of LabVIEW. LabVIEW resets the search path list to the default when you restart LabVIEW.
• Working Directory—Specifies the default directory for saving and loading files in the LabVIEW MathScript Window. Use the MathScript cd function to modify the working directory for the current instance of LabVIEW. LabVIEW resets the working directory to the default when you restart LabVIEW.
