Pressing escape exits two button dialog

[M. Bobby]

Hello,

I have a Two Button Dialog that I am using to ask for the type of test being done.  I would like to disable the ability to skip the dialog pop-up if the user is holding the escape key.  Is there a way to do this?

Thank you,

It seems you want to remove the >esc> key navigation assignment from the dialog box.

Simply create your own dialog box (a simple subVI with a few buttons) and assign the key navigation the way you want it

(Right-click...advanced..key navigation).

(e.g. don't assign the escape key to the cancel button)
