Hi all XControl freaks!
I have noticed a following "feature" of Xcontrols which restricts their use a bit. I don't know if it is a bug or designed feature (or I'm not familiar enough with them) but anyway, their behaviour is not in line with the common UI controls:
Like other labview controls/indicators, you can write a value to XControl in several ways:
1) writing to a terminal of the control
2) writing to a local value of the control
3) writing to a "Value" property node
However, writing to "Value" property if the XControl does not work if the XControl is disabled (value 2 is set to "Disabled" property).
It does not trigger "Data change" event inside the Xcontrol Facade like it should do.
For non-Xcontrols this is possible when disabled. Why not for XControls???
thanks,
Wirer
