Event Structure with Event source: <This VI> and Event: Mouse Up

[paul_cardinale]

I am concerned about the liability involved with spreading dangerous things.

If you have LV 2013 or higher, you can use this thing to create Register-For-Event nodes with hidden events.

Is there a way to attach a file to a PM?

OK, I've decided to relent.

I created this because I was annoyed that some properties aren't accessable by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" (e.g "Zoom Factor" for a picture control).

Since it lets you drill into practcially every property, IT IS DANGEROUS!

It can cause LabVIEW to crash, or put LabVIEW into an unstable state such that it will crash sometime later.

Make sure you have saved your work before you run it!

But I find it very handy. To use it:

Copy the .llb to the folder C:\ ... \LabVIEW 2014\project\

The next time you run LV, it will be available.

First, save any VIs or Controls that you are editing.

Really.  Save your work now.

From the LV menu, select Tools -> Super_Properties...

Click on the warning message to dismiss it.

Click on the Help button and read the message before dismissing it.

Click on the Help button again; this time read the message before dismissing it.

If you read the help, you know what to do next.

So... why do we have to use a super secret property here? Can we get a CAR to add that back to the VI event options or some other method to get that functionality back?

Hi Paul,

Just discovered the loss of the <This vi> Mouse Up event, which is used in an aging application I maintain. Would be massive PITA to get around since there is graph redraw code that needs to executed anytime one of several front panel controls is touched. Megathanks for posting both the Mouse Up vi with the register for events node, and your utility, which I hope I don't have to use. But I saved it anyway.
