no effect attribute node

[Dermot1000]

Hello
I am having problems with the programmatical adjustment of a numerical input. I am using attribute nodes to set the precision and data range, but it has no effect on the input element. I recently updated from 6.0 to 7.1 and never had that problems under 6.0.
What is wrong here?
I appanded the VI I am working on. Th enumeric Inputs next to the buttons have to adjust to the chosen data range.
Best Regards Dermot

Dermot,

I tried a few things and found that some combinations do not seem to work. Also changes to Range limits take effect the next time the value in the control changes, not when the property changes.

If you need to see the property changes immediately, write a value to to the control via the Value property or via a local or global variable. Even writing the current value seems to force the update.

The help file does not seem to document this.

I submitted an issue report against the LV Help for this. If you encounter other situations where NI documents are missing information or have unclear or incorrect information, please submit that feedback so we can look into it.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply.
It works now when I do not use precision and min / max in the same property node.
