Dashboard data type?
 
Where is the dashboard data type (from the Dashboard main Vi) in the 2013 Labview? Previously it was a large cluster outlined in pink on the left.:confused:

That was replaced with SmartDashboard. Look for a new palette on the lower-right of the WPILib Robotics palette.

The low and high priority data is still available if you want to use it, but it isn't promoted because SmartDashboard is pretty powerful, works across languages, and is easier to use.

If you want to continue using the unflattened data buffers, you can put the data casting back. There is really no need to send all of the I/O data that was done in past years, just send what you are interested in.

Piggy-backing on this thread, does anyone have a good link to the instructions for using the SmartDashboard? This will probably be helpful for the original poster as well.
