Description
Description of issue
nidigital fetch_capture_waveform_u32() uses 'ivi-dance-with-a-twist' for a parameter that actually needs two values that are then multiplied together. The code generator does not handle this.
This means the 'value_twist' should look like 'actualNumWaveforms*ActualSamplesPerWaveform' but we can't actually do this. This function is currently hand coded by modifying the generated code to work. See #1112

Research direction
Start by examining the code generator's handling of value_twist and the hand-coded nidigital fetch_capture_waveform_u32() output described in this issue; compare the context in #1112. Done means the generator can represent and emit the two-value multiplication without manual changes to generated code.
