Blink a control inside a subpanel: is it possible?

[OriginalP]

What is the right way to blink a control button inside a subpanel?

I have done a simple program that loads an external VI (containing a control and an indicator) inside a subpanel: when i try to blink the button, the property node returns TRUE value, but i don't see the control blinking.

I'm not able to look at the code where I am, but it looks to me as if the vi in the sub-panel is not continuously running, but rather runs once every loop lap, not allowing it to run for a time long enough for the control to blink. 

If I'm right, make sure the vi in the subpanel runs continuously and start that vi once before going into the calling vi:s loop. Then set the blinking property as you already do now. You will have to read the 'OK led' by property node as well if you need it.

You are right. In this way everything is working fine. Thank you very much!
