how to detect the abort excution button of labview

[thesara]

s function= sytem function :

basically something that works like this 

one block but has three tasks inside :

in the first call we excute the starting task (do something like initilization) just one time 

then we excute the running task (run forever) only stop if we hit the abort excution button 

after that we call the termination task that will only excute one time than the program finishes

So you did follow my suggestion as written here?

This is dangerous in the hands of someone as experienced as the OP because they don't yet understand what the abort button does and are highly unlikely to tie up the loose ends before aborting.

yes. it is not going to magically stop or unload a dll

If your teacher really want to use the "Toolbar Abort button" i'd Customize Windows apprearence, hide the Toolbar and make a fake one with a red button that just stops your loop. 🙂

Maybe plug everything into one outlet and label the abort button accordingly!

It is, so here's your homework finished. An exact replica of the abort button on a pixel-perfect imitation of the toolbar. This is what your teacher asked for.

Since edit mode seems to be part of the required "user experience" here (sigh!), once the fake abort button is pressed, the real toolbar will reappear and we suddenly have two. (I would actually take a screenshot of the toolbar, place it on the upper left of the front panel, and overlay various transparent buttons.) The code could be implemented as a state machine that runs when opened and goes back to an idle state (i.e. not edit mode) when abort is pressed, making the theatrics complete.

Chances are high that if they want a custom abort button, they also want the rest of the toolbar, such as a run button 😄

IMHO, this entire thread is just absurd.

Yes, OP can do what I did but replicate the complete toolbar and have it run on open. 

But you are right, this is absurd.
