Dialog VI: Caller locks up when close [X] clicked

[SPM]

Hi, all,

I'm trying to find a way to get dialog VIs to terminate reliably and return control to the caller when the close ([X]) button in the upper right corner of the window is clicked. The attached example shows the problem. If you run RunMe, pop up the dialog, and then hit the dialog's [X] button, the dialog disappears, but the main VI apparently never  knows about it. Does anyone know of a solution?

Thanks,

- Steve.

Hi, Steve,

Just add Event Structure with Panel Close event and stop Dialog loop when Close event occurred:

Didn't quite work, at least in LV 8.5. For some reason, I can't mix button values and events; the button values never get sensed. But what's attached does work.

Thanks,
