Reentrancy fork: working with an event structure on Actor Core.vi

Yes... But that doesn't really work when those block diagram contents are an Event Structure, right? That is the example I was describing. Am I missing something?

Having said that, David's problem is with the message handling VIs, not with the Actor Core override VIs.

Yeah sorry David! Didn't mean for this to turn into a hijack... 🙂

Luckily, we can fix the hijack. 🙂

If you're using dynamic event registration, then, yes, it does work.

If you're using all static event registration for front panel controls, I would put those controls on the panel of the new non-reentrant subVI and make that the panel that I open instead of Actor Core.vi itself.
