Conditional terminal for while loop

Solved!
Go to solution

My conditional terminal is buried behind a state event structure and I can not figure out how to get to it so I can wire the stop button.  I don't want to move the state event structure because it would unwire many shift registers.

First thing, try not to cover objects in the first place. Hidden code can really be a pain to debug. Have you tried making the While loop bigger? The alternative would be to resize the case structure so you can move the conditional terminal. Then resize the case structure and while loop to the desired size.

?  Moving a structure won't break any wires - unless you move it completely out of a structure that is containing it.  You may have to clean up afterwards, but it shouldn't disconnect anything.  I guess what you could do is place your cursor near the place where the buried terminal, then hold down ctrl while dragging your mouse to create some space.  Then temporarily shrink your structure so you can move the terminal into the space that you created in the first step.  You can then make the event structure the size it needs to be again.

Thanks for the input, I just tried changing the while loop to a for loop and then back to a while loop and it placed the conditional terminal in the lower right hand corner.  Problem solved.

Another option would be to highlight the area with the terminal and use block diagram cleanup.
