entity input switch does not work with unique names

Manipulate Entity Attributes, by changing the name of each Entity gives an error when used in the Entity Input Switch.

Can you post the complete error message?

It would be nice to see what you did, too, if that's not a problem.

I assume that you get a Data type mismatch error for putting different Entity type names in different Entity Generators connected to the same Entity Input Switch.

If so, then what I can say is that Entity type name is not an attribute of entities, it is a parameter of the Entity Generator block. Attributes for entities are defined in the prompt just below it. Please check the documentation for a more complete description.

I use R2017b, and I have also experienced the same error for the reason I mentioned above.

Thank you for the response!

Here is the error:

Data type mismatch. Input port 2 of 'vQueue/Entity Input Switch' expects a signal of data type 'S1'. However, it is driven by a signal of data type 'S2'.

Just as you mentioned. Thank you for the clarification!
