Hi, I have been trying to set a combo box using a Enum and I cant seem to find away to set it as it will only add the 1st entry in the Enum and wont cycle through the whole list, Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Thanks

Hi Koaku, if you right click in the graph and search for your desired enum, a ForEach [yourEnum] option should appear under Utilities \> Enum.

Awesome, many thanks!!!

As for the other way around I may have found a decent solution as well:
