Click the Create Type from Struct button located next to a parameter in the Type column of the Parameters Table on the .NET Module tab of the Step Settings pane in the TestStand Sequence Editor or on the Module tab of the Edit .NET Call dialog box in a TestStand User Interface to launch the Create Custom Data Type from Struct dialog box. The Create Type from Struct button is available only if the parameter type is a struct, such as a .NET value type.

The Create Custom Data Type from Struct dialog box contains the following options:

• Type Name —The name of the new custom data type.
• List Box —The .NET element label for the struct, the .NET type of the element, and the property names to which the element will map in the new custom data type. If the type of struct element is object, you can use a combo box in the Type column to select the appropriate TestStand type for the property. The property name is customizable.
• Create Custom Data Type In File —The location where TestStand creates the new data type. By default, TestStand creates the new data type in the current sequence file.
