1.11 Expression Builder

The Expression Builder is useful when generating complex calculations. The
Expression Builder is available when editing properties that can be updated at run time.
For example, the properties of the SET VARIABLE, MOVE AXIS, or CHANGE
DYNAMICS blocks are designed to be updated as the calculation variables change.
Additionally, logical expressions can be created for blocks such as IF EVENT, and IF
FAULT.
