Showing and Hiding Disabled Variables

By default, disabled variables are not shown in the Variables Editor.

Note:

MTS-supplied templates include pre-configured data acquisition activities and variables that save
data for use in various charts and tables that appear in the test, report templates, and post-test
analysis. Templates purchased from MTS may include optional variables (typically calculations) that
appear in tests. These variables are usually disabled (Enabled check box not selected) and appear
grayed out in the variables list.

1. Navigate to the Define tab > Variables tab.

2. From the Variable Actions menu or right-click context menu, choose Show Disabled Variables.

The disabled variables are shown and appear in lighter gray text. The Show Disabled Variables menu
option toggles to Hide Disabled Variables. Click the Hide Disabled Variables option when you are
done viewing disabled variables.
