deleting string control value on click

Hi
I'm trying to make a UI more user-friendly and have now a new problem:
there is a loop with several inputs (string, numeric, ring..). I want to make it possible that when a user clicks on a string control the already filled in value disappears.
I tried to do this with event structures but when I click on the string then the other controls are not updated anymore.
I added a little example for better understanding of my problem.
any suggestions? thanks

Hi Yves,

The problem was that the event structure was waiting for a mouse down click "forever". Adding an extra event case called timeout causes the event structure to stop waiting and update your UI. I have set the timeout to 1 msec wich is the fasted timeout.
