trigger event on array index change?

[mlloyd]

I understand that using a property node, I can view the current indices of an array control.  Is there any way to have my event structure pick up a change in the value of the current array index?

Since I haven't figured this out yet, my work-around has been to trigger the event structure on a mouse up event for the array control since a mouse click can be used to change the array index.  I tried also triggering on a key up event (for example, if the user highlights the index display and changes the value with the keyboard) but I could't ever trigger when the "Enter" key was pressed.  If there's no answer to the first question, is there a way I can trigger on a key up for an array control?

Many thanks,

Michelle

You can take a normal control and set the array index with it.

What a wonderful idea!  You're completely right -- there's no reason I have to be constrained to the array control itself.  I'm going to try the implementation you suggested.

Maybe one of the future releases of LabVIEW will recognize a change in the value of the array index as an event...

Thank you very much for your input!
